01The experience

One day, the whole west coast

This is the full Chifbay experience. We leave Funchal Marina mid-morning, hug the south coast past Camara de Lobos, and anchor under the 580-metre cliffs of Cabo Girao for a swim.

Lunch on board with Madeira wine and poncha, then we explore the wild caves and lagoons west of Ribeira Brava. You set the pace - the skipper knows the coves no other operator visits.

02The landmark

Cabo Girao, seen from the water

Most visitors see Cabo Girao from the glass skywalk on top. From the water the scale is completely different - a sheer wall of volcanic basalt rising 580 metres straight from the Atlantic.

The route also passes Camara de Lobos, the fishing village that inspired Winston Churchill to paint.
