Ferries to and from Funchal
Funchal is Madeira Archipelago’s lively capital and a popular Destination for anyone arriving by sea. It sits on Madeira Island’s south coast, surrounded by steep green hills and a busy waterfront. Ferries usually connect Funchal with nearby Porto Santo, making it a handy base if you want to combine two very different islands in one trip. Madeira lies far out in the Atlantic, so Funchal feels more remote than mainland Portugal, but it still has good services, plenty of places to stay, and clear transport links for moving on to other parts of the Island once you arrive.Routes and timetables
