Museo do Mar e da Pesca Artesanal

São Tomé


This charming marine and fishing museum is located in a whitewashed fisherman's shack up on stilts by the water's edge. Created by local marine conservation organisation Marapa, it has some intelligent displays with English signage and is definitely worth a stop. You can also arrange night trips to see nesting turtles here. Located at end of road to Morro Peixe.
