Underwater Nature Madeira Festival 2024

-> This event no longer takes place <-

The second edition of the “Underwater Nature Festival” is scheduled for the beginning of next month.

This recreational sporting event aims to promote and raise awareness of the Garajau Natural Reserve, a marine reserve of about 376 hectares, situated on the south coast of Madeira, between Lazaretto (Funchal) and Ponta da Oliveira (Caniço de Baixo).

As the name indicates, the programme will focus on diving and other sea related activities and on environmental actions carried out in the Reserve.

This event integrates an Underwater Photo Contest and a Stand Up Paddle Race.

This initiative is open to the general public; however, places are limited, so those interested should register in advance.
