City guide
Visiting Funchal (Madeira) in December
December is world-famous for Funchal's spectacular holiday illuminations covering entire hillsides and the legendary New Year's Eve fireworks over the bay.
Funchal is the enchanting capital of the Portuguese archipelago of Madeira, built like an amphitheater against the lush volcanic slopes of a deep Atlantic bay. Aptly named the 'Garden Island' and 'Pearl of the Atlantic', Madeira's gentle subtropical maritime climate nurtures year-round blossoms of orchids, jacarandas, and cascades of purple bougainvillea.
- From the airport
- Madeira Cristiano Ronaldo Airport (FNC) is situated in Santa Cruz, twenty kilometers northeast of Funchal. The dedicated Aerobus shuttle leaves regularly from outside arrivals, reaching downtown Funchal and the Lido hotel district in about thirty minutes. A licensed taxi costs a fixed fare of approximately 30 to 35 euros.
- Getting around
- Central Funchal and its seaside esplanade are delightful to explore on foot. Because the city climbs steep volcanic slopes, reaching higher quarters like Monte is effortless via the panoramic cable car (Teleférico do Funchal) or local Horários do Funchal city buses. For traveling across the island to levada trailheads and mountain summits, rental cars or guided minibus tours are ideal.
