Tarrafal became known due to the prison built nearby in the 30's and is now popular due to the fine beach, the best in Santiago island. It's a good one, kind of divided between the working place for fishermen and the leisure area for tourists. Warm water, calm sea, plenty of restaurants and a lively atmosphere.
Provided coordinates are from the entrance using the boat ramp.
