Pension
Hotel
Residencial
Goa in Calhau
This
modern B&B pension is located directly at the
wide beach of Calhau.
The impressive panorama starts at the little inactive volcanos behind the weekend-settlement
of Calhau, goes out over the Atlantic to the neighbouring island of São
Nicolau and ends, to the west, at the barren hills of the deserted island of
Santa Luzia. "At the rear door", like in a textbook about volcanism, little Vulcão
Viana stands for a young incactive volcano, while the majestic basalt columns
of Pico de
Vento represent an old, mostly eroded volcano.
São
Vicente is not reknown as a classical hiking resort,
but nevertheless, there are interesting - and challenging
tracks to hike and four of them touch Calhau. The
days here are not at all restricted to swimming,
fishing and beachcoombing.

The
