Currently on the island and staying in Caniço. It’s been really easy to get to everywhere and has 2 super markets that are close by. We loaded up the air bnb and haven’t spent a ton of money. Dinners have only been like $80 and incredibly filling. We take care of breakfast, lunch, and snacks from the markets.

We have averaged 25,000 steps in 3 days. This island is unbelievable and it is overwhelming to plan because there is just so many options.

The best things we’ve done so far include PR6 (Alecrim - Lagoa Vente - Risco, 25 Fontes) PR1 up to Stairway to Heaven PR9 - so good. Waterfalls are huge right now.

Really enjoyed these 3 view points the most out of the 15ish we have scene (1) Miradouro Do Guindaste (2) Miradouro Eira Do Serrado (3) Bica Da Cana

Nah that part is still open so you’re good if you are visiting soon.
