Fantastic trip - west Madera. Very exciting. Atmosphere was friendly. Vieves were beautyfull. Miguel is realy positive person.

  Off-roading with Antonio was great! Lots of fun! Highly recommend it. Learned a lot about Madeira and saw beautiful places.

  Probably you have been always told not to climb on the cliff or jump into the water because it could be shallow. Now is your time! What a nice experience!... read more We did all the nice things on the coast that were either forbidden when younger or thought to be too old for by now.

  3rd trip with these guys in 3 years. Always use them for adventure activities. They are excellent. This time I did coasteering with me 11 year old daughter.

  We had a great time coastering with Beto and Sandro!! They accommodated both my super adventurous daughter and bit nervous son. Coastering is a great family activity as you... read more can jump from the 10m height, but also have smaller options. Beto and Sandro made it fun for everyone. It was also a unique way to explore this lovely island!

  This experience was brilliant. We had initially looked around so many places and finally discovered discovery island (All the previous were booked up) But they do say everything happens for... read more a reason and we had the best time!

From booking, we received a WhatsApp message asking for our weight and shoe size for our wetsuits.
*Be aware that initially we were under the understanding that our booking was at 09:00 however this was changed to 14:30 (Apparently due to the weather although seemed same throughout the day) and we did not receive a text informing us, we became aware of this when we messaged on WhatsApp to confirm pick up time*
We were picked up and taken to the area where we were given our outfits, got into them and off we went.
The jumps had smaller options so not everyone had to go off the big rocks.
We had Martin and (We can't remember his name oops) and they were both amazing! Very knowledgable and teaching of all the sea creatures and structure of the rocks. Supportive, friendly and kind.
Snickers and water midway which is a pleasant sugar boost.
Finished with a few more jumps and a spot of snorkelling.
They even take pictures on the go pro around the coastline and email them to you for free which again is a bonus.

*Note: Having done a similar experience in UK I was aware about leaving bags in vans at the place where you park and therefore we had taken no money with us. We were gutted and frankly embarrassed that we were unable to tip the men as they were amazing - therefore ensure you take some money for this! *
