Cuada Village

Highlight • Settlement

Best einnisten right in the hotel-fish village! Nice starting point for hikes. A troublesome fishing path leads to the sea. For swimming but unsuitable, since it is very rocky.

Highlight • Viewpoint

Fãja Grande is a pretty town on Flores west coast. Great hiking opportunities. The restaurants here are often not open at all... except for the snack bar at the campsite …
