Madeira island has once again been chosen as the safest European destination for travelling in 2021, like other tourist destinations which are included in the list presented by European Best Destinations (EBD), namely the Archipelago of the Azores, Alentejo and the city of Lagoa, in the Algarve.
Amongst the reasons for including Madeira in this list of the safest destinations in Europe to travel are aspects related to the effectiveness of the set of sanitary measures applied by the regional authorities to control the pandemic in the region, namely through the programme “Madeira Safe to Discover” and the “Clean and Safe” (TdP) certification, thus remaining in the green zone, with one of the lowest rates of active cases in Europe, when compared to other European destinations ”.
EBD’s list of the Top 13 “Covid-19 safest destinations in Europe” includes other tourist destinations, namely the Azores (Portugal), Monte Carlo (Monaco), Martinique (French Antilles), Lagoa – Algarve (Portugal), Tahiti (French Polynesia), Asos – Kefalonia Island (Greece), Alentejo (Portugal), Corfu (Greece), Kokkari – Samos Island (Greece), Meteroa (Greece), Ikaria (Greece), Cavtat (Croatia).
