Christopher Columbus Caravel Trip
Christopher Columbus Caravel Trip
We'll meet at the indicated time at the Marina Funchal port, where the magnificent Santa Maria caravel will be waiting for us. Onboard this historical ship, we'll travel back to 1492 and relive Christopher Columbus' voyage to the New World as we sail along the southern coast of Madeira.
Onboard the caravel you'll enjoy the company of the crew, a group of pirates from Madeira! What's more, we might even spot some of the dolphins and whales that live in this area of the Atlantic!
Built in Câmara de Lobos, this ship is a replica of the caravel that accompanied La Pinta and La Niña in the discovery of America. Santa Maria was the largest of the three and was captained by Christopher Columbus. You'll get to explore its deck, go down to its cellar, admire its magnificent Portuguese sails and crow's nest.
