Complexo Balnear das Salinas
About
Found on Madeira, Complexo Balnear das Salinas sits at Cam da Trincheira in Câmara de Lobos, on the island's southern coast. Reaching it from Funchal, Câmara de Lobos, Caniço or Calheta is straightforward along the south coast road.
A 3.6 out of 5 average from 36 reviews places Complexo Balnear das Salinas among the coastal spots on Madeira's warmer, drier southern side. Câmara de Lobos sits close to Funchal, so the run from the capital is short, and other island towns such as Machico, Santana, São Vicente and Porto Moniz lie further along the coast. The southern coast is drier overall, while rain falls mainly in the winter half of the year on the northern islands.

Madeira's mid-Atlantic setting means the island is volcanic in origin and stands far from any continental mainland. Portuguese navigators settled the islands in the fifteenth century, and they later served as Atlantic trading and whaling stations. Music and dance remain central to island life, from morna and coladeira to Azorean folk songs.
