I was here in 2008. My husband was born in Madeira. I just loved Porto Santo. Spent one of the best days ever exploring the island and swimming at the glorious beach.
When we were in Porto earlier this year, we met a Portuguese woman who shared with us that Porto Santo is her favorite vacation destination. Got us curious. Thanks for sharing your adventure there. We're looking forward to seeing more in your future trips. 🏖️
Hi guys, we've just returned from our 3rd holiday from the UK to Porto Santo. The Island is beautiful & so different from Madeira. Our next trip there will be at the end of January 2026, to view the Island in the winter months. Obrigado folks and enjoy your travels 😁👍Andy & Alison, York 🏴
We loved Porto Santo 😎! Walking the beach from one end to the other (where there's a restaurant) and back was a highlight. We were there in November though, and made the mistake of assuming the ferry ran daily. We needed to return on the day it didn't run so had to fly, so check the schedule when planning your trip.
Hi Alan, Leslie, and Wolf. A great overview of Porto Santa for those of us who haven't been! You definitely convinced us to visit the island. It looks very different than Madeira. More like part of the Canary Islands. Thanks for taking the time to share your trip to the island with us. Cheers!
Ola Traveling Madeira and Porto Santo are waiting! We hope you enjoy them as much as we do. Thanks for watching and supporting our channel. Have a wonderful day Alan and Leslie
Many thanks for giving us an insight into what we're going to. We fly to Porto Santo on 18th Sept (2 days away) and stay for a week, looking forward to exploring the island and maybe a trip to Madeira.
In Porto Santo I spent part of my summer vacation together with my godparents, between bathing, eating, taking a nap, walking on the beach and swimming again, we spent the day on the beach and other times we walked around the island, we ate on a picnic somewhere quiet and relaxing and that despite being just a child, he adored the tranquility and the beautiful views of that little island..., he missed it a lot. Another detail is the ferry in which we went to Porto Santo, it was a small ship called "blue pirate" it was a canoe compared to the current one and I always got dizzy on the way out but never on the way back
Ola charliefirpo8045 We are glad you found us! Keep the comments flowing so we can work to improve and provide topics of interest. Have a wonderful day Alan
Love the vibe of your videos, and there’s something soothing about your voice. The narration of your videos seem to come from the mind of a poet. Thank you for sharing Porto Santo with this Portuguese gal who lives in the USA and didn’t even know about this island.
Olá Gina, Thanks for watching and supporting our channel 😀. And for your kind words of encouragement. Glad to share Porto santo, as it's a great place to visit. Thanks again Alan, Leslie and Wolf
Hi Alan, we met at the Medieval Festival in Machico, I just wanted to say Hi, we are back on Madeira in August, and are now thinking we will take a trip to Porto Santo, thanks for the videos, one on public transport would be very interesting
Ola Keith, Nice to hear from you. Glad that you are putting Porto Santo on your list. We meant to get your contact information. Send us an email. Have a wonderful day!
Another enjoyable start to my Sunday morning! A cup of coffee and the newest adventures of Alan, Leslie and Wolf! Thanks, PS looks like a lovely diversion 😅 have a great week! Hopefully you survived Oscar 2023!! Mark in L.A.
Hi Mark, Storm Oscar was bad, but we fared well. Porto santo was a pleasant experience, and one we recommend now. Thanks for your continued support 👍 Alan, Leslie and Wolf
Hello Alan, i have a funny story about Porto Santo. I live in Madeira island and my wife is from Porto, where my inlaws live. When i met my wife and got maried, we used to go to the Algarve cause my father in law had a time slot at a 5 star resort near Albufeira that he could use 2 times a year, usualy at easter and summer. I always loved the Algarve but it became quite pricey even not having to pay for acomodations. About 10 years ago my father in law decided that the family vacations would be in Porto Santo. Now, has a Madeira native i've been to Porto Santo several times before and always loved the beach, but i thought the lack of diversity on places to go since it's a tiny island would be a negative item for my father in law, cause he was always up and about. Boy was i wrong!! My father in law fell in love with Porto Santo and quit Algarve alltogether. He said and i quote, "there is no place in the world that has such golden sand beaches, warm sea water and such peace and quiet like Porto Santo, and all of that just 1 hour and half from the mainland Europe, a paradise cheaper than Algarve, the best beach in Europe". Since that year, all our family vacations are in Porto Santo, always on august, and never went back to Algarve.
Hello Alan and family, I hope you're all well. What a stunning place Porto Santo looks to be. We've talked about going there a few times whilst visiting Madeira but not made it yet. Your video has.made me more determined than ever to at least try a day visit. Thanks for this and best wishes to you all. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Olá Dan, Thanks for the continued support of our channel 😀. We loved our time on Porto Santo, and it should be a great place for you, too. Obrigado Alan ,Leslie and Wolf
Hi Alan looks beautiful, it's on my bucket list one day maybe next time I go to Portugal 🇵🇹 I'm from the Azores islands but current living in California. You should consider visiting the Azores someday, I recommend summer months, cheers to your channel keep up the good work buddy 👍
Darn. Almost first... Gotta keep trying. I'll get there. Rainy Sat. night here, watching a "It'll Be Fun" vid. about beautiful places. Ah This Is Good...🤗 Well done Wolf 👍.
Olá Jess Thanks for watching and supporting our channel 😀. Very much different than Madeira. Much dryer. Madeira has plenty of fresh water, and Porto santo requires desalination of sea water for their source. Obrigado, Alan, Leslie and Wolf
Ola Rui, Thanks for watching and supporting our channel 😀. Good to know. The ship works hard and deserves some down time for maintenance. Obrigado Alan
Thank you for the video. In your future videos, could you please include prices of the things you show in your videos? Prices such as ferry ticket, lunch, gas, car rental, lodging, etc. Thank you.

I bet you are right! Many years ago it would have been a place to hide your ill-gotten gains.
Thanks for the informative video. Porto Santo looks drier. I thought there would be more trees.
Olá Jess
Thanks for watching and supporting our channel 😀. Very much different than Madeira. Much dryer. Madeira has plenty of fresh water, and Porto santo requires desalination of sea water for their source.

Hi, regarding the ferry: No ferry during January...anual maintenance with no ship replacement. Just plane.
Ola Rui,
Thanks for watching and supporting our channel 😀. Good to know. The ship works hard and deserves some down time for maintenance.
Obrigado
Alan
Thank you for the video. In your future videos, could you please include prices of the things you show in your videos? Prices such as ferry ticket, lunch, gas, car rental, lodging, etc. Thank you.
Ola! Thank you for watching and supporting our channel. Have a wonderful day!
What was the name of the restaurant you said was nice and a nice local bar
Olá Nicholas
Hoyo Hoyo for dinner and drink and Charlottes Place for drinks and a beautiful sunset view.
how do you find/ do you use the sandy beaches on Madeira (NOT Porto Santo)
Madeira has a few Black sand beaches, but most are rock beaches.
We hiked those same trails! Isn’t the smell lovely?
We had a great time, and the trail was awesome. Thanks for watching 👀 Obrigado
