Details About Porto Santo

Destinations » Europe » European Coast » Porto Santo


Only 16 square miles, this pleasant island offers beaches of fine golden sand, sweet, juicy fruits which thrive here, and even a healing spring of water that flows into the sea. Christopher Columbus lived here and married the daughter of the governor. Perhaps it was the view west that started him thinking about the Indies.
