Nova Sintra, the flower capital

Best forRomantics with time and a stomach for boats

Nova Sintra is a toy capital. Gardens are the point. Walk. That is the activity. There is no reliable tourist airport. The ferry from São Filipe argues with the swell.

Plan

Never book an international connection the same day. If the ferry cancels, you sleep on Fogo — keep that hotel flexible.
