Fun at sea!
This trip on the catamaran was just spectacular, they have a fabulous netted area at the front of the boat providing great views and the opportunity for sun bathing. We were lucky enough to see whales and got the opportunity for a swim with some amazing views. The crew were very friendly and fun! We would highly recommend this trip!

West Maderia Boat Tour
Our experience was beautiful from beginning to end. Our guide, Cofofo, tended to every need, from providing morning juice and setting out the paddle boards to serving a delicious lunch and afternoon drinks. Ours was a small group of five. It says the boat only goes out on Thursday, but if you have a group of six, message them. Highly recommended,

It does not get any better than this. If you like sailboats rather than catamaran or power boat and you want to see the sunset with some wine and small bites, then this is for you.

Unforgettable Evening on the Water
We had such a wonderful experience on our sunset cruise with Captain Paulo! From start to finish, everything was smooth, relaxing, and enjoyable. Paulo was friendly, welcoming, and made sure everyone felt comfortable on board. He provided snacks and drinks, which was such a thoughtful touch while we enjoyed the gorgeous views. The timing of the cruise was perfect—the sunset was absolutely stunning and made for such a memorable evening. Highly recommend booking with Captain Paulo if you’re looking for a relaxing and unforgettable experience on the water!

Spectacular sail
This sunset cruise was spectacular and a highlight of our honeymoon trip to Madeira! Manolo and his son were so kind, knowledgeable, and professional. Their love for sailing was evident and contagious. We loved being able to stop and swim and really enjoyed our charcuterie board with wine as we watched the sunset. We could not recommend this trip enough, it’s a trip you’ll forever cherish. Thank you so much Manolo!

"Unforgettable experience with Ventura!"
From the moment of booking to the return to the harbor, everything went impeccably. The booking was quick and simple, and the Ventura team was always attentive and professional. The boat ride to the Deserts was simply spectacular! We were lucky to spot dolphins — a real thrill. Between refreshing dives, snorkeling and fun moments at the stand up paddle, visiting the island, there were activities to get the most out of the day. The lunch, already included in the tour, was delicious, with meat or fish options, drinks and dessert included — all very well served and in a relaxed Mood. The good weather helped, but it was the sympathy and dedication of the Ventura team that made this experience memorable. No doubt, an Enterprise I recommend to those who want to know the wonders of the Deserts (and other tour options that the Enterprise has) in a safe, fun and unforgettable way!

We booked this as part of a big birthday celebration! It made the day feel very special. Paolo and George were great hosts and very professional. We loved sailing down the coast, stopping under the high cliff where they produced great drinks and snacks and loved swimming in the sea.If you want to do something really special while you're in Madeira, this is the thing!
