Madeira weather reviews

Lily, May 2023
A few years ago, my friend and I went to Porto in May, and the weather there was still quite cool, and last year my husband and I went to Madeira. In Madeira in May it is not yet the season for going to the beach, but it was much warmer than on the previous trip to Porto. My husband tried to swim in the sea, but it was a little cool, but for exploring the beautiful island nature, the period of the year was suitable, it was warm during the day, sunny all days and without precipitation.
