5.00We took a SeaBus today from Calheta to Caniçal via Funchal. Departure was on time, and we arrived in Funchal in about an hour and a half. It was such a nice experience! We saw a beautiful sunrise and passed by so many picturesque little towns and bays. Thank you, Fatima and Andrea, for taking such good care of us - we were offered blankets when it got a bit too windy. The boat itself was stable, so I didn’t get seasick, and they also offer free and pretty fast WiFi on board! I’m happy with my experience and planning to take a SeaBus in the future. Good luck with the new route, guys!
