Located on the east coast of Madeira, just above Funchal, Santa Cruz holidays involve relaxing days under the sun and evenings enjoying the friendly atmosphere in the cafes, bars and restaurants. The Santa Cruz weather can reach 20° out of season and up to the late 20`s during the summer months, perfect for sunbathing on the pebble beach, with sundecks.
Santa Cruz is also home to an outdoor lido and paddling pool, as well as the famous Aquapark with water chutes and crazy slides. The wonderful main plaza is lined with restaurants and cafes, offering local and international cuisine, and some delicious fresh fish dishes.
Santa Cruz holidays are great for walking and exploring the wonderful levadas, mini canals leading you through spectacular scenery, and visit the Valley of Curral de Freiras for incredible views.
