On New Year's Eve in the volcanic archipelago of Madeira, one of the most elaborate celebrations breaks out to the joy of locals and visitors alike. The lush, jagged islands are a contrasting blend of dark grey volcanic rock and an incredibly diverse and colorful botanical ecosystem.

The Portuguese territory, colonized in 1420, is dotted with charming villages and cities adorned by red-titled roofs, which will mark the backdrop of your New Year's experience. From state-of-the-art catamarans off the coast of the island, you'll take in the celebration in the city of Funchal.

In 2006-2007, Madeira's New Year's Eve fireworks earned a place in the Guinness World Records as the largest display of its kind, and they continue to be a highlight for both visitors and locals alike. Join us for a magical evening aboard one of our catamarans, surrounded by hundreds of colourful lights illuminating Funchal's skyline.
