Ilha Peixe
About
Found on Madeira, Ilha Peixe serves seafood at Caminho Cais do Porto Novo 18, 9100-061 Santa Cruz, Portugal. The address places it in Santa Cruz, on the eastern coast of the island.
Santa Cruz lies close to the airport side of Madeira and is reachable from Funchal and the other south-coast towns by road, so it fits into a day out from the capital. The venue serves seafood, with grilled fish and fish stews among the dishes that appear on tables across the island. Twenty-six reviews give it a 4.3 out of 5 average. Its website, http://ilhapeixe.pt/, carries the menu and location details.
Fish features heavily in the cooking of the island group, and each island keeps its own versions of the everyday recipes. The nearby places on the island include Machico, Caniço and Funchal alongside Santa Cruz.
Portuguese is the language spoken day to day on Madeira, with English understood in most places that serve visitors. The island's position between Europe, Africa and the Americas has long made it a stopping point for shipping. Whales, dolphins and seabirds gather in the waters around Madeira, and boats run from several points on the coast.
