Cima (Ilhéu de)

Islet to the southeast of Porto Santo, where a lighthouse was installed in 1900. It is separated from the island by the so-called 'Boqueirão de Cima'.

There are some fossil shells on it, and it is also known by the name of 'Ilhéu dos Dragoeiros', although these trees have completely disappeared not only from the islet, but also from the entire island of Porto Santo.
