Workation in Machico: the essentials

Madeira's early settlers came ashore in this wide bay in the 15th century, and Machico became the seat of one of the island's first two captaincies. Today it is a town of around 10,000 in the easternmost municipality, with a market, a promenade, a small fort and a beach of imported golden sand beside the natural dark one. The Ponta de São Lourenço peninsula hike and the harbour at Caniçal are close, and buses run along the south coast to Funchal. Madeira Airport is only about 2 km away, which makes travel simple and means you can hear planes in parts of town.
