ポルト・サント島の観光名所

Porto Santo Essentials

Porto Santo is defined by its nine-kilometer stretch of therapeutic golden sand beach and its historical ties to Christopher Columbus, who resided on the island in the late 15th century. The landscape features volcanic peaks like Pico do Castelo and the traditional wooden windmills of Portela. Visitors can explore the 18th-century Forte de São José, sample local Lambecas ice cream in Vila Baleira, or hike to the endemic flora and rugged cliffs of the Terra Chã plateau.
