Madeira lies in the Atlantic, and island cooking leans on fresh seafood, tuna, maize and root vegetables such as cassava and sweet potato. Many islanders emigrated to New England and Europe for work, and family ties still run between the islands and those ports. Music and dance are central to island life, from morna and coladeira to Azorean folk songs. Sea temperatures are warm enough for swimming for much of the year, though the water stays cooler than in the Mediterranean.
