Porto Santo is a small Portuguese island in the Atlantic Ocean with a surface area of just 42 square metres. It is part of the Madeira archipelago and is located about 40 kilometres north-east of the main island of the same name. Porto Santo enjoys a subtropical climate, with mild temperatures throughout the year. It is also home to more arid landscapes, where a mountainous area in the north contrasts with a beautiful coastline in the south. The nine-kilometre-long beach has golden sand and calm, crystal-clear waters, which is what the island is famous for. Porto Santo is an ideal destination for those looking to recharge their batteries and enjoy a change of scenery. However, lovers of more active holiday will not be disappointed, as golf, hiking and water sports are just some of the things you can try out during your stay here.
