Overview

Ribeira Grande: A City of Intrigue, Scenic Views, and Over 500 Years of Tumultuous History.

The Place and Its Past:

Ribeira Grande has withstood major catastrophes, including volcanic eruptions and devastating earthquakes that left their mark on the city’s historic buildings. These events also shaped the resilient spirit of its people.

For centuries, the city was also a target for pirates. Its strategic coastal location made it vulnerable to such attacks. Today, remnants of coastal fortifications that once protected the city from maritime raids can still be seen.

Breathtaking Views:

The city offers stunning panoramic views of the vast ocean, which here displays a particularly intense shade of blue.

The People and Their Culture:

Discover how this population lived and lives today, marked first by a strong connection to the stream that gave the city its name and later by a significant migration to mainland America.
