The Madeira Island Sup Challenge (MISC) is a Stand Up Paddle Board event, which for the first time integrated a stage of the European circuit EUROTOUR. This circuit was born in 2015, and currently travels around 13 countries, being considered the leading circuit in the competitions of the sport in Europe. Each country represents a stage and in the end all make up the EURO TOUR circuit, which competes in the Elite, Youth, Junior and Open categories.

This event had its first edition in Portugal, in the city of Funchal on 25 and 26 September 2021 from pier 7 of the Port of Funchal (Nautical Centre of São Lázaro), a place that was prepared for the reception of all participants and the general population that could follow the races in the two days that the event took place from a Village set up there.

In 2022, it will be held in the same place, in the beautiful city of Funchal, where a SUP Village will be set up to welcome all those who want to watch the competitions. In addition, in 2022, the 1st Madeira Challenge SUP Camp will take place the week before the event. Welcome to Madeira!
