Madeira—57 km long, 22 km wide, 1,862 m high. Madeira enchants visitors with its lush vegetation and incredible variety of flowers and fruits, as well as its balanced, mild climate. From the steppe-like east to subtropical mango, papaya, banana, and fig plantations in the south; terraced fields with the famous Levada irrigation channels; slopes covered with vineyards; eucalyptus forests, a “Scottish” plateau, all the way to the high-alpine Central Massif surrounded by centuries-old laurel forests— this island challenges you to actively explore it. Valleys alternate with magnificent mountain forests, steep slopes, and a wildly romantic rocky coastline. The mountain and fishing villages, such as Canico, exude a tranquil atmosphere. Located in the midst of the warm Gulf Stream, the sea surrounding the island invites visitors all year round with pleasant temperatures for swimming, snorkeling, and diving. In winter, water temperatures do not drop below 18°C, and in summer, the water reaches 24°C, and there are no thermoclines. The Manta Diving center celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2022 and is located on the sheltered southern coast of Madeira. The German-run center prides itself on high standards and excellent service; it is the only ISO-certified center in the Atlantic and features a large house reef located directly within the Garajau Underwater Nature Reserve. It’s just 20 m from the center to the water. Diving and snorkeling in Atlantic and tropical conditions thanks to the nearby Gulf Stream make your vacation an unforgettable experience. The center is centrally located within the fish-rich house reef—just step right into the water, right in the middle of Madeira’s Underwater Nature Reserve! Four large dive sites, each with distinct topography, are easily accessible from the entry point. For example, a cave tunnel with an air pocket, a steep wall, or the “Arena” with its large schools of fish. The diverse dive sites here extend to a depth of 34 meters; they’re sheltered from wind and waves off the rocky headland of Ponta Oliveira and are just a one-minute walk away.
