With Funchal as reference, it is necessary to go on to the Via Rápida (VR 1) towards Ribeira Brava. Once you arrive in Ribeira Brava, follow the Via Expresso (VE 3) that connects to the southwest coast towards Calheta.

With the excellent views, especially of the Ocean, that accompany you along this route we recommend a calm drive (no speeding).

If so, it should take you around 30 minutes to the centre of Calheta, an excellent starting point for your exploration of our Municipality.

 

Please use the map provided, in case your starting point is not Funchal, to help you get to Calheta.
