    Don't arrange thru the hotel. Drive here and hire a boatman for only $10-20 euro instead of $100

    This place is very cool! And it offers great views! Definitely worth visiting if you are on Ilheu das Rolhas! Also so you can brag about being on the equator 😅 the walk up to the point is very easy and it takes less than 30 minutes.

    Very nice to stand on the equator. It's not exactly on the equator though, but you cross it by walking up the hill. Definitely worth the cheap boat trip. Try to spend a few hours on the island. For that, you'll have to be staying near the south of São Tomé. Make sure to support the locals on the island and buy a souvenir, or eat lunch there. If you're lucky, you'll get to see turtles released!!
