Best time to visit Madeira
Madeira enjoys a temperate climate year-round. Spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) offer pleasant weather and fewer crowds than summer. Prices tend to spike in July-August, so if you have flexibility, travel in shoulder seasons. December to February is low season with possible rain, but flights are cheaper.
What to do when you arrive
You'll land at Cristiano Ronaldo Airport (FNC). Madeira is world-renowned for hiking: Pico Arieiro, Pico Ruivo and the levadas (traditional water channels with walking paths) are must-dos. Funchal, the capital, has a traditional market, Igreja do Colégio and excellent local cuisine. Pebble beaches and natural pools at Porto Moniz round out the offer. Hire a car to explore the island freely.
