What you can expect

Embark on an unforgettable experience between sea and land and discover the natural charm of Farol Islet, located southeast of Porto Santo Island. The tour begins with a boat crossing to this small uninhabited paradise, where tranquility and the wild landscape create a truly unique setting.

After disembarking, a guided walk begins along the islet's trails, providing closer contact with its natural wealth, from the characteristic fauna and flora to the impressive geosites, with a special highlight being the famous “Cabeço das Laranjas.” Next to the lighthouse, there will be time to relax, enjoy the panoramic views of the ocean, and feel the rare and authentic silence of an uninhabited island. This moment will be accompanied by a tasting of regional flavours, including the traditional bolo do caco and the iconic Madeira wine.

Before returning, participants will also have the opportunity to dive into the crystal clear waters of the marine reserve, which has been protected since 2008, in a snorkelling experience ideal for observing the local marine biodiversity. The tour ends with the boat trip back to the marina, after approximately 3.5 hours of adventure, nature, and discovery.
