Unlike much of Madeira’s volcanic coastline, the manmade beach of Calheta stands out for its smooth, welcoming sands. Imported from Morocco, the sand creates two beaches facing each other, perfectly encircled to protect the waters. Ideal for relaxation, you can also take advantage of the great water sports options.
For a small town, Calheta’s home to an impressive selection of historical churches, as well as an active sugar mill steeped in history. You won’t be short of culture either on your Madeira holiday here, as the Casa das Mudas Art Centre houses work from high-profile figures like Francis Bacon and Salvador Dalí.
Calheta, Madeira
The sweep of golden sand here has all the facilities a family needs, including showers and changing rooms. It's backed by a line-up of bars and restaurants, too, so you have drinks and snacks on hand. When you're done sunbathing, you can catch a whale-watching boat nearby.

The Museum of Contemporary Art sits in an award-winning modern structure comprising a gallery, library, auditorium and event spaces. Inside the gallery you’ll find a collection of contemporary Portuguese art dating back to the 1960s, including works by artists such as Joaquim Rodrigo, Manuel Baptista and Jorge Martins.
Calheta, Madeira
Galleria dos Prazeres is part of Quinta Pedagogica, a community project run by the parish of Prazeres. The gallery and exhibition space give local artists a chance to display their work while visitors can take a look round. There’s a café at the entrance where you can order a coffee – or, if you fancy it, a cider.
