I plan to visit Madeira spots in december?
Could anybody hellp me with accomodation or car rental?
Any surfshop there, so i can ask guys few things?
Maybe some surfer has some room for rent? do i think right way, that island is pretty small, so i can visit few spots one day, or the roads are very bad, as it looks at google maps?

Big thanks for help in addvance ;)

Aloha Madeira
Boas Madeira.
Com o que li apenas digo que a conduta, humildade e respeito se consegue um bom ambiente e uma boa harmonização.
Contudo na próxima semana vou conhecer a vossa Ilha Magica (não só pelo Surf, mas tb pela gastronomia, paisagens, poncha e por tudo o que a rodeia).

Vou passar uma semana e se possível gostava de apanhar umas ondas (isto se não estiver Gigante, heheh).

Abraços. boas ondas e quem sabe se não nos encontramos.

Se alguém me poder dar umas dicas agradecia...

Obrigado,
Hélder Marques (helderjm@gmail.com)

Madeira surfing for keen but less experienced
Bringing son surfing to Madeira Feb 08. He's 14 small and brave. Sez he can cope with anything up to 8 feet. Usually surf west wales .
Don't want him to die or get too badly cut up . Where do you suggest we go ? Don't say not madeira as I've already booked flights !

joe berardo is right
hey people stop spilling the beans. and lets keep things to ourself. so we can explore again. without already knowing everything and finding another thousend surfers in the line up i rather sit alone. willing to share with the few that found it as well. nice site this is like the others but they bring in a lot of idiots in our direction (they get nailed anyway hehehe)
i come alone out of respect.
no vanload of donkeys
wait my turn out of respect.
bring no camera out of respect.
try to speak portugese out of respect.
hope i'm welcome probably bring some smoke for the local crew out of respect
see you in the winter.
greetings from wim from planet earth

Some advice to DONDO???
who the hell is this guy Dondo??? he's not from here so why is he always adding photos to this site??? why doesn't he add photos from the place he came from??? Keep your photos and the places that you surf to yourself. Don't be a fool...

No Kooks welcome !!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you don't live here don't surf here!!!!!!!! Locals only. Go to Ericeira that's where all the surf schools are and friendly locals, so bagger off !!!! Ask for Miguel Fortes, he will help you out...

...
i was on madeira in the first week of november. and i think madeira could be a good place for surfing. i was a bit irritated because i never saw a surfer on really good waves and at nice spots. but then i went to spot near sao vicente and there were so many locals who weren't as nice as their isle madeira. so keep cool guys, we are all surfers and not a kind of enemy or something like that... please become better!!!
hangloose

disappointing
i just came back from a week in Madeira. I stayed with my relatives in Sao Goncalo. i travelled to Jardim do Mar and was really sad to see that the spot is ruined from the development of a promenade along the seashore. Madeira is really nice, especially the northern part; Funchal i found to be boring and the people not very open (if you're not able to speak Portuguese). Anyway, it is an ok place but not somewhere to go for a surftrip. If you want better conditions and more spots, travel to Ericeira near Lisbon. Save yourself the hassle and the extra plane fare.
