The entire east coast of the island consists of a protected area, both of the island’s flora and fauna, where you will find the beaches of the Costa de Boa Esperança, vast stretches of white sandy beaches, not recommended for swimming, but well known among the water sports community, mostly by kite-surfers and wind-surfers. Due to its wind currents.
But certainly more visited for the fact that these are the beaches with the highest rate of turtle nesting that come to visit the island, the entire coast is a place of intense turtle appearances, mostly common turtles (Caretta caretta), being the third largest in the world, since these beaches are quite distant from the city, does not have many negative factors that degrade the habitat of turtles.
