Madeira's mid-Atlantic position keeps the island green all year, with a mild oceanic climate and a summer season that runs driest and warmest. Cooking here draws on fresh seafood, locally raised beef and cheese, and wines grown in volcanic soil. Direct flights from Europe serve the mid-Atlantic islands, and Portuguese is the main language on Madeira, so a few words of it help at the table. A meal at O Café do Túnel fits naturally into a day spent between Funchal and the island's western villages.
