Madeira: Winter Sun

Madeira in the winter is pleasantly warm (around 18-22C), although the winter months in Madeira can be quite wet, particularly at higher levels, and stormy and cloudy conditions may last for a few days at a time. However, the winter weather in Madeira can be pleasant for walking and sightseeing, touring the island of Madeira, and wandering around the fascinating cobbled streets of Funchal, Madeira’s capital city. If you are looking for a winter sun holiday where you can lie by the pool every day, Madeira is not the ideal destination, but for pleasant, sunny days, with an average of five to six hours of sun, Madeira is a good choice for some winter sun.
