Written By Manuel Poças

Porto Santo Island, in Madeira, was considered the best beach destination in Europe by the World Travel Awards this year. The Portuguese island was up against the Algarve, Cannes, Corfu & Costa Navarino, Mallorca, Marbella, and Sardinia, and won.

Furthermore, the island was considered the best island destination in Europe, and the place with the best tourism entity. The three awards were announced by Madeira’s Government and were received at the World Travel Awards’ Gala, in Berlin.

Madeira has been distinguished by the World Travel Awards as a top European and global destination since 2013. In fact, this year was the 10th time it won the award of best insular destination in Europe.

To conclude, apart from the awards, it was also announced that Madeira will host two international ceremonies for the World Travel Awards this year, the World Gulf Awards and the World Gala.
