Santa Cruz City Centre, Madeira

One of the most popular attractions of Santa Cruz, which is really close to Cristiano Ronaldo International Airport, is Praia das Palmeiras, a pebble beach with two swimming pools. Close to Ribeira da Boaventura, you will find a bathing complex, with pools and a solarium area. For extra fun, try the water park (Aquaparque), right next to this complex. Walking along the promenade and enjoying the sea breeze is a good option for those who prefer calmer activities.
