Culture and Heritage
Machico was the very first landing point of Madeira Island. A city with loads of reminders of the rich Madeiran history which you can observe while walking around.
Where it all began
Our project started with a community initiated from scratch by like minded-people with a simple common vision: to spotlight Machico and create a network of locals, digital nomads, travellers and remote workers who choose Madeira’s East Coast as a home.
Authenticy, diversity and inclusion are core values within our community, and anyone who shares those is welcome.
