As you can see, the May weather on Madeira and Porto Santo was not very favourable. Out of our 7 days stay, the weather was really good only during 2 days.
I do not want to discourage anyone, because the weather on Madeira can never be guaranteed. However, if you care about sunbathing: Statistically, the best conditions for that are at the end of summer.

It is still worth visiting Madeira, but for a very different reason, which is the Flower Festival – Festa da Flor. Despite unpredictable weather, this beautiful spring holiday is definitely a beautiful time to visit Madeira. I wrote 5 posts about the Madeira Flower Festival, so be sure to check these.
