Discover São Tomé & Príncipe

Sao Tome and Principe is a tropical paradise lost in time, located in the Gulf of Guinea on the Equator. Known as the 'Center of the World', these volcanic islands offer lush primary rainforests, dramatic rock spires like Cão Grande, and historic cocoa and coffee plantations known as 'Roças'. The islands are a haven for biodiversity and a testament to the peaceful 'Leve-Leve' (easy-easy) way of life.
