São Tomé and Príncipe is an island nation in the Gulf of Guinea with volcanic mountains, rainforests and Atlantic coastlines. The main island of São Tomé combines natural landscapes with historical traces of colonial cocoa production. Abandoned plantations, known as roças, stand among dense forests, while beaches like Banana Beach and Praia Piscina offer sand and clear water for swimming. The landscape ranges from flat coastal strips to mountains in the interior, where waterfalls such as Cascata de São Nicolau flow through tropical vegetation. Obo National Park protects much of the original rainforest and offers trails through dense vegetation with endemic plants and birds. Pico Cão Grande, a 663-meter (2,175-foot) volcanic rock tower, rises alone from the forest and is visible from several viewpoints. Along the southern coast, a marker near Ilhéu das Rolas marks the equator, which crosses the island. In São Tomé city, the cathedral, Fort São Sebastião and the National Museum recall the Portuguese colonial period, while the Presidential Palace and markets show everyday life today.
