Know the structure of the ”Island”
As the name of the country suggests, “São Tomé e Príncipe” is mainly made up of two islands: “São Tomé Island” and “the island of Príncipe”.
if you go to Principe Island from Sao Tome Island, you use local airlines such as STP AIRWAYS. But they seem to have a lot of cancellations. Also, last minute reservations are expected to be very crowded. And Please refer to the reviews below.

It is difficult to go by boat. This is because it is not developed for tourism and is 150km away.
If you go to Principe Island, it will be an unstable itinerary. So do you really want to go there? Can you come back to Sao Tome Island? Please consider carefully.
Know the structure of the ”road” at Sao Tome
I drew a large road in the image below. There are only along the east and west coasts and toward the center. The rest are surrounded by vast nature, or are just footpaths.
If there is a road, you can take a taxi, so you can travel according to your schedule. Visiting places where there are no roads requires trekking or hiking, so please allow plenty of time.
Know the structure of the ”small Island” at Sao Tome
There is Ilhéu das Rolas, famous for its “Equator Landmark”. It is easily accessible by boat from Porto Alegre. The price is approximately 25 EUR/person.
