Lying just off the western coast of Africa, the diminutive islands of Sâo Tomé and Principe remain unspoilt by mass tourism, making the former Portuguese colony the perfect place for adventure. Immerse yourself in local culture as you explore deserted white-sand beaches, misty rainforests, and crumbling plantations. Bradt's Sâo Tomé and Principe is the only stand-atone guide to the islands. In this comprehensively updated second edition, Kathleen Becker provides priceless insider information leading you to hiking trails that meander past thundering waterfalls, to the very best spots for diving or turtle watching, and to a wide range of accommodation and restaurant choices to suit all budgets.
