There are a number of beautiful spots on the island to go and enjoy a bbq with family and friends.  You will need to bring your own wood/coal and griddle – and food of course…

Please be mindful of the amount of water you use and please be sure to dispose of your waste responsibly.

There are only two companies on the island that offer bus tours for large groups.  During the summer months Angie Travel also offers a daily open-top bus tour.

There are two or three taxi drivers who are also good and keen tourist guides.  Any one of the taxi drivers at the taxi rank should be able to advise you which taxi drivers offer a tour or the islan.

Discovering the charms of this golden island through horseback riding is one of the most unforgettable memories you can take home in your holiday luggage.

Now, under the supervision of the Office of the Regional Public Administration of Porto Santo, located on the José Comendador José de Castro Vasconcelos Street, in the Site of Ponta, with a total area of 39,083 m2, the Porto Santo Equestrian Center is responsible for promoting activities that can provide residents and visitors are another attraction, thus reflecting free and easy access for everyone regardless of their physical condition.
The Porto Santo Equestrian Center integrates an indoor and an outdoor rider and is prepared not only to organize horse rides but also to teach beginner riding lessons. This space specializes in teaching people with no prior experience and has horses adapted for children.

The space features 13 indoor pits, 3 stud rooms for equestrian material and wellbeing, a hay, straw and feed storage room.

This emblematic structure also has an Equinclusion program, which is based on the therapeutic intervention with horses. This is a project in the area of Social Inclusion that was the winner of the 2nd edition of the Participatory Budget of the Autonomous Region of Madeira and was considered, with around 94 thousand euros.

Through therapeutic intervention with Horses, the program aims to implement therapeutic activities in areas such as health, education and horse riding, promoting biological, psychological and social development in individuals with special needs, providing the improvement of their physical, neurological and sensory functions. The activity can take on two interventions, horse therapy and Therapeutic riding.
