A short, decommissioned airstrip that runs along the cliff just outside town. Originally opened in 1962 to give Santo Antão a fragile link to Praia, it closed in 2000 after a string of close calls — the strip is wedged between cliffs and ocean, and the local winds made approaches treacherous.
Today the asphalt is a perfect seaside promenade, with the Atlantic on one side and the green ridges of Santo Antão on the other. It's where locals come at sunset to walk, fly kites, and watch the day end. A good place for a slow stroll with the wind in your face.
