Madeira's southwest coast is the star of this all-inclusive cruise on 'Living Sea'. And after setting out from Funchal port, you'll head up the less-explored coast to Cais da Lapa for some swimming. The best part is that with a maximum of 52 guests on board, you'll have all the space and attentive service you need to enjoy a day at sea.

Settle in on deck with a cold drink in hand, and feel the Atlantic breeze in your hair. You'll glide along the intensely green coastline – soon coming upon Cabo Girão, which towers out of the sea at a height of 580 metres. You'll get to cool off in the clear waters of Cais da Lapa, where boats from no other company stop, while your 'Living Sea' crew prepares a lunch of homemade dishes.

The perfect pairing for your tasty lunch is wine from the Alentejo region. Make the most of the relaxing on-board experience with your group before sailing back down the coastline – hopefully accompanied by some curious dolphins or sea turtles.
