Ribeira Quente

Highlight • Settlement

Ribeira Quente is a parish of Povoação. In practice, the town is divided into two: the town of Ribeira itself and the town of Fogo, where the main attraction is the beach of the same name (which is so called due to the underwater thermal springs, which make the water "hot" ).
