Ah! I was there around the same time and might have walked past you in jardim. Absolutely loved it, really regret not surfing paqueña I surfed Paul do mar and whilst the wave was fun it was well overhead and such a pain to get in and out, I surfed a few spots on the north coast around sao Vincent that were so much fun, more beachie like but still on boulders
Wow I don't think I've come across such interesting content in quite some time you Definitely have a much appreciated and welcome style Keep em coming my friend and Thanks for sharing as always 👍🤙
I was in Madeira one month after this video was uploaded and really regret I found it only now, especially regarding the driving around the island, its reeeealy steep sometimes;) I'm an intermediate surfer and could recommend surfspot Machico or Praia da Maiata for beginners, its kinda in line with what was said in the video but still definitely fun to surf and a great way to make progress fast (if you are learning).
Ahhh that's unfortunate timing! Yeah it's crazy steep haha! Yeah ok, thanks for that. That's awesome info! I'll see if there is a way to add those spots into the video when I get chance :)
Hi mate!! I stayed in a villa with family, but i'd suggest staying in Jardim if you can find accomm there, otherwise, there are heaps of options in Funchal, that you can drive from :)
Amazing video! It's so great that you share your love for the ocean. Surfing is such an amazing water activity and it's lovely to see you enjoy it, keep going with these great videos. If it doesn't bother you, I'd like to give you a suggestion, a tip for the next videos: Basically, you could try inserting some comic and funny stuff... to give everyone a pinch of humor that, in the world of surfing and water activities, can never be missing. Now, I don't think much of it, but the first thing I could think of in your sport might be peeing in the water. Once, my uncle, who is a scuba diver, peed in his wetsuit during a long diving session and that moment was absolutely funny, he even wrote "I’m peeing" on a waterproof notebook during the session. He has always been telling me that there are 2 types of divers and swimmers: those who pee in the water and those who lie. I know it may sound strange as a request but, in my opinion, these are moments of happiness and carefree that always make everyone smile. I hope you like the idea and I hope you have a wonderful day!
Hey Katia! Glad you enjoy the videos and of course!! Any feedback and suggestions are very welcome!! Thanks so much for your tip and totally agree with you. Will definitely try and add some more humorous elements to future vids, but bare with me as I learn to get better on camera and make better videos as well hahah!!

Dan, what you need is a bigger board. Simple
Thanks for the video any tips for a base to stay and explore from, with a car?
