A sea of shared secrets


Suddenly we look at these two islands, Madeira and Porto Santo, like two sisters. Different, but complementing each other in their complicity, keeping each other's secrets. The first has pebble beaches, like Ponta do Sol, the second has a golden sandy beach as far as the eye can see; one has levadas with water flowing from the highest peaks, like Pico do Arieiro, all the way to Funchal, or Curral das Freiras, and the other has Pico Castelo and Pico do Facho embedded in the arid soil where we feel like discovering the shades of green that multiply as our steps add up, further and further north.

As if the two sisters shared the secrets of a lifetime, they seem to embrace each other every day on the ferry that connects them between Funchal and Porto Santo. Take advantage of one of these trips, discover the secrets of the golden island and let yourself be carried away by the mysteries it has to unravel.
