FishingBooker, the world’s largest website for booking fishing charters, just announced the 10 best European fishing destinations, and Funchal is one of them. The list was created based on a number of factors such as user reviews, variety of species, and overall experience at the destination.
Madeira is a place that combines black volcanic mountains, lush green forests, and open ocean for hundreds of miles in every direction. Funchal, the region’s capital balances fun city life with easy access to stunning nature. And of course, this is Portugal, so you can expect great wine, too. Fishing in Madeira is legendary, as well. Blue and White Marlin, Swordfish, Spearfish, Bluefin and Bigeye Tuna, Mako, Mahi Mahi, and some huge Sharks are just some of the species anglers can expect to catch here.
