Beach or Mountain Vacation: What to Choose This Summer?

VIGO, Spain - June 3, 2025 - PRLog -- The Call of the Sea: Salt, Breeze and Atlantic Flavor

If you've ever dreamed of getting lost in a garden in the middle of the Atlantic, Madeira is your destination. This Portuguese Island is unlike any other, with a volcanic landscape of dramatic cliffs that drop into the Atlantic. Everything here is lived intensely: the colors and the scents.

Starting from Funchal, the capital, you can explore by jeep, taste local fruit and immerse yourself in the heart of the island. If this Atlantic destination catches your eye, here are some of our favorite ways to experience Madeira:

• Take a journey full of contrasts with our Jeep tour through banana plantations and lush gardens, where vibrant nature and traditional cuisine come together.
• Discover remote landscapes, authentic food and local wines with our gastronomic jeep tour through the north and wine-producing region of Madeira, certified as DOP Madeirense since 2008.

Funchal invites you to a summer where the wild beauty of the island and its culinary heritage go hand in hand.

Slow coastal living in the Rías Baixas

If you prefer a Spanish destination where the green countryside meets the sea, the Rías Baixas region offers a different kind of coastal summer. There are no rushes here, only tides, boats and a good glass of Albariño.

In the northwest of Spain, Vigo is the lively heart of this Galician coast and a great place to begin your adventure. For a few days of relaxation in Galicia, here are some of our top suggestions:

• Step aboard our sailing experience to the Cíes Islands, a journey across Atlantic flavors and stunning landscapes.
• Let the sound of the sea guide you with our sustainable mussel boat tour and tapas tasting, the perfect choice before strolling the historic streets of Vigo's Old Town.
