Calheta

Today I will tell you about the most famous beach in Madeira, Calheta! Did you know Calheta's sand that is presently at the beach was imported from Marroco.It doesn't only have one but two man-made beaches that face eachother.This beach is considered the most visited beach in Madeira. Not only is it a tourist attraction but many people who live there love spending quality time at such an amazing site. At this very moment there is a wipeout competition going on there which will be there for whole of summer 2015.

This village also has the largest amount of historical churches. Calheta is also known for producing the best white rum which is called Aguardente, this originates from the traditional drink called Poncha which is made out of Nectarines.
