Beautiful Funchal, capital of the stunning island of Madeira, is a lovely city surrounded by spectacular settings. Nice people, great climate, great prices and a wonderful atmosphere combine to make a great destination that today, is relatively unknown. Come visit before the rest of the world discovers this pleasant secret.

Addition: Sadly, it's a bit late for that. two or three cruise ships a day are pouring out their multitudes. However the gardens at palheiro Frreiro, Monte and Funchal itselfare all easily reached and they retain all their appeal.
