About This Tour

Your ship gives you a few hours in São Tomé. This private shore excursion is built the right way round: a route that flexes around your actual time in port, and a straight guarantee that if your ship cannot tender, you get every euro back. No forms, no argument about whose fault the weather was.

The tour runs south along the coast to Boca do Inferno, where Atlantic swells force spray into the air, past Pico Cão Grande, São Tomé's most recognisable volcanic landmark, and along Praia das Sete Ondas, a wave-swept beach known for surf. If time allows, it stretches further into the island's cocoa-plantation history and its colonial-era cathedral.

Every stop is chosen to fit the hours you actually have once your tender lands. If your tender is delayed, the guide adjusts the route around the time you have, without rushing you through stops for two-minute photo breaks.

What to Expect

Boca do Inferno

Atlantic swells force seawater through a narrow gap in the volcanic rock and throw it into the air. Most dramatic at high tide.

Pico Cão Grande

A 663-metre needle of volcanic rock rising straight out of the rainforest canopy, visible for miles and unlike anything else on the island.

Praia das Sete Ondas

Beach of Seven Waves, a long stretch on São Tomé's coast known for surf, with rows of waves rolling in one after another.

Optional: Roça São João dos Angolares and Cathedral

If your time in port allows, the route extends to one of the old cocoa plantation estates and the colonial Cathedral of Our Lady of Grace in the city centre.
