Prainha is one of Madeira's finest beaches ( a rare spot with sand in copper and rust tones)

While most other beaches show off pebbles or imported white sand, Prainha keeps its authentic, almost wild texture. That coppery-red sand is a direct inheritance from the island's volcanic past. And this sand has a quiet trick up its sleeve: when a wave rolls in, the water shifts color. Transparent turquoise mixes with dark grains, creating the effect of shimmering metal.

The White-breasted Nuthatch is a very small bird, with a large head and almost no neck. They are grey-blue on the black with a frosty white face. They are quite agile and can often use their pointed bills to forage from any angle, even upside down. They are typically found in more mature forests or near mature trees like maple, hickory, or oak.
