Madeira is a Portugese archipelago that lies between Portugal and Africa, in the north Atlantic Ocean. The capital city is Funchal, which is where the cruise ship docks. The only inhabited islands in the archipelago are Madeira Island and Porto Santo Island.

The land mass of Madeira is formed by a massive volcano that rises out of an underwater mountain range.

The sub-tropical island offers lots to see and do here for the whole family, from gardens to beaches, mountains to cities.
