The archipelago, discovered by the Portuguese in 1418, is made up of the Islands of Madeira, Porto Santo, and the uninhabited Islands of Selvagens and Desertas (both Natural Reserves).<br \/>\nThese islands, because of their privileged geographical position and mountainous relief, have a surprisingly mild climate and a moderate level of humidity, conferring these islands\u2019 exceptional subtropical features. The seawater temperature is also very mild, because of the influence of the warm Gulf Stream, presenting averages of 24\u00baC in the summer and 18\u00ba in the winter.<br \/>\nAlthough it is small, Madeira is rich in majestic scenery and rare beauty. Go and explore the charms and delights of this floating garden!<br \/>\nThe main places to visit in the Madeira Islands are Funchal, Cani\u00e7o, the east coast (Santa Cruz and Machico), the west coast (C\u00e2mara de Lobos, Ribeira Brava, Ponta do Sol and Calheta), the north coast (Porto Moniz; S\u00e3o Vicente and Santana) and Porto Santo.<br \/>\nDelight yourself with the countless views, on an island of such outstanding natural beauty!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For more detailed information, check <a href=\"http:\/\/www.visitmadeira.pt\/en-gb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.visitmadeira.pt\/en-gb<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.madeiraallyear.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.madeiraallyear.com\/en\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>END 2022&nbsp;will take place in in the beautiful city of Funchal in the Madeira Archipelago, Portugal.
