Ocean Pearl View - A breathtaking view of the ocean in Funchal, Portugal

Explore the Region

Funchal, the capital of Madeira, has a rich history dating back to the 15th century, when it was founded by Portuguese navigators in 1421. Its name derives from the abundance of fennel (an aromatic plant) found on the island at the time of its discovery. Thanks to its strategic location in the Atlantic, Funchal quickly became an important commercial port, especially for the sugar trade and, later, for the famous Madeira wine, which is appreciated all over the world.

Over the centuries, the city has developed into a renowned tourist destination, welcoming illustrious visitors including Winston Churchill and European royalty. Today, Funchal combines historic charm with modernity, offering a unique blend of colonial architecture, lively squares and a stunning waterfront.
