Porto Santo
Porto Santo is just one long (white) sandy beach …. with a bit of an island attached to it. It is part of the Madeira archipelago and the island does not resemble to its big sister island Madeira.
Travel Channel has published a amusing short video about Porto Santo (thanks to Der for the mention in his blog).
A few remarkable remarks (hehe) are done in this video ….
The sands of Porto Santo has curative powers;
There is no real evidence that Columbus set foot on Porto Santo;
And the final advice at the end of the video.
