Madeira is reached by air from Europe, Africa or the Americas, and short flights link islands within the group. Portuguese is the official language, with local accents that visitors will hear across the island, and English is widely understood in tourist areas. Rain falls mainly in the winter half of the year on the northern islands, while the southern side stays drier overall. Many islanders emigrated to New England and Europe for work, and family ties still run between the islands and those ports.
