📍 MADALENA DO MAR
Or ‘banana village’ 🍌🫶 due to - you guess it - all the banana plantations, which you can find there. There is even a banana walk, an easy loop of 1.9km, which you can follow called; ‘Rota da Banana’ 🥾
In July they celebrate the ‘banana festival’ (Festa da Banana), which is a tribute to one of Madeira’s most important local products 🌴
👩🍳 Great restaurants to eat, for example the island’s famous deep ocean fish ‘Espada’ (with banana or without) at Madalena do Mar are:
• Taberna da Madalena
• Casa de Pedra
• Restaurante Moreia
⛱️ Madalena do Mar also has a beautiful, long, but rocky beach. When you do not like the feeling of the stones beneath your feet you can opt for a walk over the pier and climb down the stairs for a swim 😎
🚘 Madalena do Mar is, like the village of Ponta do Sol, only a 10 minute drive away from us 🤗 a great option for romantic (longer) sunset walks! 🥰
