Feel the freedom of underwater exploration – without any equipment. This beginner freediving course introduces you to all the basics of diving using breath-holding techniques alone. Over one-and-a-half days, you'll be taught a mix of practical and theory before trying out your new-found skills with a few dives in the Atlantic.

As one of Portugal's premier marine reserves, the waters off the coast of Madeira are the perfect spot for first-time free divers.

A mix of practical and theory, they'll have you exploring the Atlantic Ocean in no time.

Free of bulky equipment, you'll make less noise underwater meaning you'll see more marine life. The waters here are calm and clear so you can expect to spot plenty of fish. And when you've completed the course, you'll take away new skills that you can use anywhere in the world.

Madeira Monte Palace Tropical Gardens with optional toboggan ride

Madeira Monte Palace Tropical Gardens with optional toboggan ride

The Monte Palace Tropical Gardens float a thousand metres above Funchal, so breathe deeply and enjoy the fresh mountain air on this half-day tour. You'll begin with a visit to the village of Monte, before heading to the main event – 70,000 square metres of themed gardens, sculptures, wildlife and water features.There's something new around every corner of this sprawling garden. Head to the lake to see koi carp, a waterfall and swans paddling by, stroll through the forested area to appreciate Madeira's native plants and make sure you visit the Japanese and Oriental gardens for intricate bridges, Buddha statues and incredible city views from the pagoda. There're also paths you can follow to see hundreds of sculptures and traditional azulejo – intricately painted ceramic tiles that tell the story of Portugal's history and culture. In Monte village, you'll have the option to pick up the pace with an experience that screams Madeira – a ride back down the hill in a wicker toboggan. It's the traditional way down and quite an adrenaline rush. The toboggan ride is an added cost, but if you choose not to take it, you'll enjoy a slower, yet equally scenic route down the mountain and back to your hotel.
