Om
Hurtige fakta: Local fishing villages thrive on age-old techniques passed down through generations, where fishermen still use colorful boats called "radeiras." The catch often features unique deep-sea species like black scabbardfish, a Madeira specialty seldom found elsewhere.
Højdepunkter: Early mornings reveal the lively fish auction where local catches are enthusiastically traded, reflecting a community deeply connected to the ocean. Brightly painted wooden boats bob in the harbor, creating a vibrant mosaic against the backdrop of dramatic cliffs and blue waters.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes for uneven, often rocky pathways along the harbor.
- Bring a camera early to capture the colorful boats in soft morning light.
- Try to learn a few fishing terms in Portuguese to engage with locals.
- Avoid weekends if you prefer a quieter visit as locals gather more then.
