In short: See the turn of the year and Funchal's fireworks from the deck of a private classic yacht, with seasonal snacks and drinks for your group.

On the night of 31 December the yacht leaves Marina do Funchal late in the evening and waits out at sea for midnight, when the fireworks light up the whole amphitheatre of Funchal. You are back in the marina after the show.

The boat is private for your group, up to ten guests, with seasonal snacks and drinks on board. The trip depends on the sea on the night; the captain confirms it on the day.

Questions people ask

How many people can come aboard?

Up to 10 guests. Every charter is private: the yacht is yours for the trip, whether you are two or ten.

Where do we depart from?

From Marina do Funchal, in the centre of Funchal. We confirm the exact pontoon and the meeting time when you book.

What should we bring?

Comfortable clothes and shoes, swimwear and a towel if you want to swim, sun protection, and a light jacket for the return. Drinks and snacks are on board.

What happens if the weather is bad?

The captain decides on the day, with your safety first. If the sea does not allow the trip, we offer you another date or a refund.

Will we see dolphins?

Dolphins are not the aim of our trips. Spica sails for the coast, the swimming stops and the time on deck; it is not a dolphin or whale watching tour.
