Praia Jale

Reviewed By Stilltraveling9

Praia Jale is a very lovely beach with three simple but comfortable cottages (no hot water or fans, electricity in the evening). Good, simple meals provided. While difficult to reach its isolation is a romantic attraction. It's possible to get public transport to Porto Alegre and then try to negotiate further private transport from there otherwise arrange transport from Sao Tome town to resort. Praia Jale is included in all the southern route day tours.

Praia Piscina

Reviewed By paulosQ5871ZN - Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Beautiful quiet small beach, one of the best to swim we saw in São Tomé with the almond trees branches growing right over the green blue waters during the high tide Concerned about the ready to start plans for a new development of a bungalow hotel owned by Isabel dos Santos and the possible impact in the free access to the area.

Reviewed By CGN_JPN - Porto, Portugal

An hidden gem in São Tomé disguised in an old colonial house, that was turn into a cultural place, a bar or simply to hangout with friends. A very cool, stylish and beautiful place, the manager is extremely friendly and the handcrafted Rum made with local product like cacau, coffee or passionfruit is really tasty. Definitely worth the visit.

Marco do Equador

Marco do Equador at Ilheu das Rolas is a wonderful lookout situated where the Equator line crosses the island. From there you can get wonderful views of the main island of Sao Tome.

Well, I thought this was a great Idea :) I got engaged here recently after traveling by boat from Sao Tome. Great to have only 2 other tourists here. On the technical side - this is actually not the exact position of the equator but close enough... why spoil a good story with facts ;)
