Full description

After getting picked up from your hotel, start the day at Funchal Harbour where you will learn everything you need to know about kayaking before heading to the nature reserve. Upon arrival at Garajau, enjoy a 40-minute paddle towards Lazareto. Stop for a break on the beautiful pebble beach and take in the views of the surrounding rock features from times gone by. Afterwards, discover Madeira's native marine life as you snorkel through crystal-clear waters. In the event of poor weather conditions, you will have the opportunity to explore the sea from the safety of your kayak instead. Finish the day with a spot of cliff diving before heading back to your hotel for the evening.

Was a nice little trip. Only the enormous age difference in the group made itself felt. We had a younger child with us and since he couldn't ride with his parents due to the number of people, we often had to stop or drive slowly. Nevertheless, all in all it was nice and you can take it with you :)

The tour was beautiful! We went out with the kayak from Funchal and drove to Garajau to snorkel a little bit. From the kayak you can see the whole city of Funchal and the guide also talks a little bit about certain buildings and their story. The guide was also very friendly and made sure we are doing well all the time! At the snorkeling place you could see verious beautiful fish and the terrain was exciting! I would definitely recommend it to everyone who is visiting Madeira!

Great adventure! Vitor is a fun guy that ensured everyone was having a good time! We kayaked to a remote beach for the snorkeling where we saw some very cool fish underwater. Overall an amazing morning. :) Our guide also took pictures with his GoPro and there was a space to safely leave our backpacks behind.
