The climate of Santana (Portugal)
Santana is located in the northeastern part of the main island Madeira in the autonomous region of Madeira. The village is located in the vicinity of Funchal. The village is known for its beautiful triangular shaped fishing houses with their thatched roofs locally known as Casa del Colmo. These house could be found all over Madeira, nowadays you can only find them in Santana. Nowadays the houses are used as an accommodation for tourists. The cable way Rocha do Nevio Teleférico can be found in the vicinity of the village. Santana has a warm maritime climate also referred to as a subtropical climate. However, this appellation is not referred to in the Köppen climate classification. Just like in the rest of Madeira the climate of Santana is strongly influenced by the Atlantic Ocean. However, when a so called Leste wind supplies dry and warm air from the African continent temperatures may rise above 30 degrees Celsius.
