Madeira's banana-growing village celebrates its signature crop beside the Atlantic.
Spend an evening by the sea sampling banana-inspired treats at one of Madeira's most authentic village festivals.
From fresh bananas and homemade cakes to liqueurs, local produce and live music, Amostra da Banana is a relaxed celebration of Madalena do Mar's farming heritage and a favourite with locals who return year after year.
Pair the festival with a peaceful stay on Madeira's west coast. Palheiro Mar, Palheiro Jardim and Casa Carneirinho in nearby Paúl do Mar are all within an easy 30-minute drive.
