Porto Moniz

Not ideal for snorkelling, and I couldn't even go for a swim in the rock pools. The pools were barred off - which was a shame because they looked so inviting and jacuzzi-like. The north coast gets the worst of the weather, but it was unpleasantly wavy round most of the south coast too; the ocean swells wrapping round the island. I would just have to be patient.

Above, the northern coastline of the desolate Ponta São Lourenço, to the east of Madeira, on the day I did get to go snorkelling.
