After four glorious days meandering around the island of Madeira, our next adventure started with a short flight from Funchal airport at 7.30 in the morning for a quick 40 minute flight to the small neighbouring Island of Porto Santo, some 46 miles from Funchal. On arrival, baggage was collected and loaded into two awaiting hired cars before heading for the four star Villa Baleira hotel, our home for the next four days. After quick check-in it was time to enjoy a hearty breakfast along side various teams taking part in the Underwater Video and Photograhpic Championships and all staying in the same hotel. It’s an interesting sport and initially knew very little about but was keen to find out more. Years ago when on holiday in Barbados I once signed up for a Padi diving course but never ventured past a couple of 20 feet dives to a local shipwreck – but then I have always enjoyed snorkeling!
