Island beaten by the Atlantic where fishing villages, contemporary art and mineral landscapes coexist.

Vedi tutto
For a stay of 3 to 6 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Nature and landscape
Fogo Island Inn
The Fogo Island Inn is set on stilts facing the Atlantic, with a contemporary architecture that directly interacts with rocks, fishing workshops and the horizon. The building, which is also a glimpse of the outside world, tells of the cultural renewal of Fogo Island, between design, hospitality and attachment to local communities.
Place indismissible
Tilting
Tilting maintains a strong Irish footprint, visible in its houses, fences, narrow paths and stubborn relationship to the sea. The village, classified for its heritage, is discovered as a inhabited landscape: fishing hangars, meadows, crosses, rocky handles and accents that remind the origins of its families.
Place indismissible
Brimstone Head
Brimstone Head is a rocky promontory with steep relief, locally associated with the idea of one of the " coins" of the world. The climb rewards by a wide view of Fogo, the village houses, the islets and the Atlantic, with a wind often strong enough to make the landscape physical.
Place indismissible
Joe Batt's Arm
Joe Battos Arm is one of the most photogenic villages in Fogo Island, with its clear houses, docks and rock formations on the Atlantic coast. The nearby trails and artists' workshops give the place a maritime and creative atmosphere, without obliterating its fishing activity.
