As a family, we sailed along the south coast of the island over 2 days, with magnificent views of the coast and its villages, and spent the night in the port of Funchal between the 2 days. Miguel, the skipper, was very friendly and responsive. We were able to swim in magical places every day. We were rather short of wind, but that's life ;) To sum up, we spent 2 very beautiful days!
Vasco was very available, attentive and attentive before and during the trip.
We spent 3 days cruising between Funchal and the island of Porto Santo off Madeira. Vasco and Miguel were excellent skippers, very professional and friendly. We have complete confidence in them, especially as we're used to sailing, so we're in a position to judge. The 3-day sailing program was really perfect, and the weather was just right. Thanks again for this unforgettable experience and your warm welcome. We'll be back with great pleasure if we can
Vasco is very friendly, very serious, very professional and gives very good advice. The boat is well maintained and safe.
We had a cruise on a sailboat on which we had the maximum of comfort. We could see that Vasco knows perfectly all the spots of his island, he loves it and shared it with us. He is an outstanding navigator, an endearing character with a lot of humor. Thanks again to Vasco for this wonderful week where we laughed a lot.
Good contact with a top organization.
There are many memories, all of them wonderful, especially the sporty landing in reverse on the quay of the restaurant where we were able to taste typical Madeiran dishes in the company of Vasco. There we could see that Vasco handles his boat with brio. Vasco is an excellent teacher of Puncha (local aperitif).
