👍👍 Wenn man schon da Unten ist, sollte man es besuchen. Ist ein toller Gefühl auf der Äquatorlinie zu stehen und der Ausblich nach São Tomé ist schön. Das Fischerdorf ist sehr klein, die Leute nett und nicht aufdringlich. Sie leben von den Einnahmen als Guide. Ich war mit einem Ortskundige dort und ben...

Scenic spot
👍👍 Absolut beeindruckend in real, die Fotos werden dem nicht gerecht. Die letzten 3km "Straße" sind sehr anspruchsvoll, nur mit einem Geländewagen im 1. Gang möglich.

👍👍 Fantastic beach and bay ! Typical and unique “tropical island dream”..... no herds of tourists or big crowds , but instead a feeling of being on an uninhabited island.... sea water is best temp you can imagine ... around the 30-33C / nice rocks to observe fishes and chorals to complete the scenery .

👍👍 Very nice beach. When touring the island of Sao Tomé make sur you have your bathing suits and some towels at hand. The sand here is dark grey, almost black. The waters are very swimmable and the place makes for a good stop when connecting north and south of the island. Although there are 2 shy bar i...

🫤 This place left me with very mixed feelings ... part of me was about to cry and another was enjoying the rich flora. I personally love gardens and gardening.

Roça Água-Izé
Open air museum
👍 Lugar histórico que bien vale una visita para ver como eran las Roças portuguesas. Haciendas con mano esclava o trabajo forzado más tarde. Desde el hospital, ocupado como todas los edificio, hay una gran vista. Una asociación de guías locales hace la visita.

😐 Beautiful place, but they will try to scam you in the restaurant next to it. Whatever you order, even if its just fried banana, they will bring you several dishes and charge you all. Luckily enough we protested and they conceded their evil intentions.
