Coasteering Tour - Cliff jumping, swimming, scrambling.

By Discovery Island Madeira · listed in scuba diving and snorkelling trips in Madeira

Our take

Hotel pickup is the reason I'd choose this coasteering trip. You snorkel and swim along the coast at Ponta de São Lourenço. The route includes scrambling and climbing.

You can also abseil and use a zip line. Cliff jumps are optional, with heights from 1 to 10 metres. A helmet and life jacket are included. You also get bottled water and GoPro photos.

Trips run on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The group limit is 20 people. Ask whether your accommodation is on the pickup route before booking. An adult must join any booking with children.

From the operator

In Discovery Island Madeira's own words, from the Viator listing.

This adventure stands out due to its dynamic combination of activities that merge the thrill of land and water sports into a single exhilarating experience. Navigating the coastline through scrambling, swimming, climbing, rappelling, zip-lining, and cliff jumping offers a unique way to engage with the natural environment, providing an adrenaline-pumping journey through some of the most scenic areas along the coast. Each aspect of the adventure challenges participants in different ways, making it a comprehensive outdoor activity that enhances physical dexterity, boosts confidence, and sharpens problem-solving skills. Moreover, the opportunity to explore the interface between land and sea in such an interactive manner is not commonly found in other sports or activities, making this a truly unique and memorable experience.

Edited by Roman Antonov. I love Madeira and keep going back. Trip details come from the operator's own listing on Viator, as of 13 September 2026. One detail is ours: the listing doesn't say where the aquarium is, and it's in Porto Moniz.
