About this activity

Beyond its famous volcano, the island of Fogo reveals an amazing diversity of landscapes and natural sites.

Along the way, enjoy magnificent views of São Filipe and its characteristic architecture. Then stop at the natural pools of Salinas, created by the meeting of the Atlantic Ocean and volcanic rock. If the sea conditions permit, you can swim there and enjoy a moment of relaxation in an exceptional setting.
