CANIÇO - SANTA CRUZ – EASTERN COASTLINE OF MADEIRA ISLAND
The village of Caniço has been developing at a pretty fast pace over recent years yet has managed to retain an unruffled and key luxury edge to this tranquil and attractive inland village of Santa Cruz. Both the Palheiro and Santo da Serra Golf Courses are a short distance away and clean and crystal clear waters along the coastal stretch of Garajau’s natural marine park are perfect for scuba diving enthusiasts, with numerous scuba diving schools in the region. A Christ the King monument on the promontory boasting magnificent Atlantic ocean views, overlooks the lovely pebble beach below for keen sea-bathers.
Although close to the airport, attractions in Santa Cruz include chic cafes, stylish bars and restaurants, a cultural centre, historic church, shopping mall plus an Aqua-park, complete with pleasurable toboggan rides, speedy slides, swimming pools with both bar and food outlets on-site. Cultural festivities are also held throughout the year in Caniço, including the prominent gastronomy fair held during the month of September. The region’s finest eateries offer an enticingly varied selection of fine local speciality dishes - live evening musicians and folklore sing and dance shows add to the truly pleasant atmosphere of the festival, attracting hundreds of tourists and locals alike. Camacha, the village renowned for its famous wicker and cane works is to the north and falls within the jurisdiction of Santa Cruz.
