Madeira, the "Pearl of the Atlantic" is a paradise for those who like nature. Situated in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, 500 kms from the coast of Africa.

Now, Madeira is becoming a popular destination for relaxing golf holidays. There may only be two golf courses on the island, but they are both superb and well worth playing more than one round on. Indeed, Santo da Serra has 27 holes and can be played in three different 18 hole combinations. If you like to combine your golf with beautiful surroundings, a wonderful climate and fine food and wines, then a Madeira golfing holiday could be the perfect choice.

The island is beautiful with pretty red roofed houses dotting the precipitous slopes which overlook the capital city of Funchal. Madeira is lush and green with an abundance of trees and flowers and the temperatures which seldom fall below 17c in winter or 22c in summer, are perfect for golfing.

A bustling and vibrant city by day, in the evenings Funchal has a relaxing continental atmosphere, and it is a pleasure to wander amongst the excellent restaurants and bars.
