Discover the waves and surf empty breaks
This island is a mystery in the middle of the Atlantic. It’s like Indonesia was 30 years ago. There’s a long point break, perfect waves, and the water is 16 degrees Celsius in the winter and spring 22°C so you can surf in shorts. Often you’re the only one in the water, and you can see the cliffs and the mountains, the church and the lagoon.
EXPERIENCES / Outdoors and adventure
There’s nothing better than being so close to nature. Close to silence. Experiencing the sound of tranquility and adventure. Trails, tracks, hikes, surf, swim, sing, dance, sleep, eat, read… or simply a human being standing still enjoying pure existence.
