About Porto Santo
Porto Santo is Madeira's neighbouring island, 45 minutes away by plane or 2h30 by ferry from Funchal, known as the "golden island" thanks to its 9 km stretch of fine golden sand with therapeutic properties — one of the largest and most beautiful beaches in Europe. The island's only town, Vila Baleira, is home to the Christopher Columbus House Museum, where the Genoese navigator lived before setting out to discover the Americas. The contrast between the arid interior and the turquoise ocean, the volcanic peak of Pico do Facho and the seafront golf course make it a unique destination.
