    Madeira enjoys a subtropical climate, but weather can be unpredictable. Expect mild temperatures year-round, but pack layers as it can be cooler in higher altitudes. Strong winds are common, especially in coastal areas. Levada walks can be challenging and require appropriate footwear and caution. While Madeira's wildlife is generally harmless, be aware of the potential for strong currents at sea. Check weather forecasts before undertaking any outdoor activities.
