About Sailing & Yacht Tours
Sailing along Madeira's dramatic coastline reveals perspectives of the island impossible to see from land. Towering sea cliffs rise hundreds of meters from the water, hidden sea caves appear around headlands, and the volcanic landscape takes on new dimensions from the deck of a yacht.
Tours range from shared sailing experiences on classic yachts to private charters on luxury catamarans. Routes typically follow the south coast from Funchal, passing the fishing village of Câmara de Lobos, the dramatic Cabo Girão cliffs, and scenic bays perfect for swimming stops.
Many sailing tours include gourmet food and premium drinks, creating a refined experience that combines adventure with comfort. Sunset sails are particularly popular, offering champagne and canapés as the sun dips below the Atlantic horizon.
