Fishing and exploring in Madeira

Dedicated family "Divorce Free Holiday".

Madeira is an absolutely ideal destination for that dedicated family "Divorce Free Holiday". In the past Madeira's warm summers and mild winters have only traditionally attracted the 'older generation'. But, that's all now changing as more and more younger people realise just what this great family destination has to offer. No you are not going to find miles and miles of deserted sandy beaches with bars and clubs. But what you will find is a destination that has more to see and do than most of those places put together. Madeira is different and is also proud that it breaks the mould.

For here you have a holiday that includes opportunities to the capital to soak up the atmosphere and indulge your culture taste buds or to shop and find some local souvenirs, such as Madeira's famous basket/tapestry work or fine wine, for an eternal reminder of your holiday. You could spend hours and hours walking/trekking, viewing the many gardens with their tropical plants/flowers, or travel inland exploring the wonderful scenery of this volcanic island. Plus there are of course water sports and championship Golf courses. In our standard itinerary we include two days on a boat with our captain. You can use these days, subject to the time of year, to either fish for record breaking size Blue Marlin, that can exceed well over 1000 lb, or in the winter months, catch the cheaters of the sea, Wahoo. Alternatively you can use your two days to cruise around looking for Dolphins and Whales, that frequent the Madeira coast.

What our customers have to say:

  • "We loved it, so much to see and do and we even had a couple of days fishing. Fantastic holidays thanks ." Tim Hutchinson
  • "The whole holiday was a dream, highlight was watching both Dolphins and Whales while out fishing, you get so close amazing. We can not wait to go back. " Mrs & Mr Moore
  • "Perfect holiday, now we can both enjoy our holidays as it suited us both. PS I did manage to slip out a 650lb Blue Marlin that made it that extra little special " Mr Barnett
