Fogo | Cinder cone near Achada Fuma

WI_cv083.jpg

View from the Bordeira down the S slopes of the island. This cinder cone clearly indicates the volcanic origin of the island. The lush green of the vegetation only persists for few months each year. After the short rainy season, colours quickly turn to yellowish and brownish in October or November, and remain so until the following August.
