Workation in Santana: the essentials
Santana, seat of Cantagalo District, lies on the east shore of São Tomé just 9 km south of the capital. The town and its adjoining settlements count about 10,300 people. Roughly 1 km offshore sits the islet of Ilhéu de Santana, and the road continues south to São João dos Angolares, 17 km on. The airport is about 18 km away and the capital is close enough for errands, while daily life here stays small and Portuguese-speaking.
