Itinerary
Have you ever imagined traveling back in time aboard a boat full of stories to tell?
Climb aboard a Xavelha, the traditional boat of Câmara de Lobos, and depart from Funchal for an authentic 2-hour trip along the south coast of the island, bound for the majestic Cabo Girão, one of the highest cliffs in the world.
More than just a boat trip, this is an experience that immerses you in Madeiran culture. Along the way, you will hear stories, legends, and curiosities that make every minute special, transporting you to the traditions and memories that gave life to these boats and the fishing community that created them.
During the trip, you will have the opportunity to admire unique views of the coastline, with its bays, cliffs, and green slopes that can only be seen from the sea. And to make the moment even more unforgettable, there will be a stop for a refreshing dip in the crystal clear waters of the Atlantic, sea conditions permitting.
Aboard an authentic Xavelha, you will feel that you are not just visiting Madeira—you are experiencing its essence, touching its roots, and taking with you memories that will last forever.
Bring your swimsuit, towel, goggles, and sunscreen to make the most of this unique experience.
