  • View of the coastal Camara de Lobos village with its white buildings and grassy hills

Sweet teeth know of Madeira for its syrupy wine and the cake subsequently named after it, but this island lingering off the coast of Morocco charms those who venture to its shores mostly with its diverse flora and fauna. Known as the ‘floating garden’ of the Atlantic, its sub-tropical ecosystem transports visitors to an Eden of criss-crossing waterways, black sand beaches and pretty waterfalls sporadically falling onto coastal roads.
