How to Distinguish
- Utility poles resemble those in Portugal and Brazil
- Image quality is poor and the Google car blur is large
- Portuguese is used, and signage is almost the same as Portugal
- Country domain: .st
Signs you can find
If you can see a black Google car, yellow taxis, tall mountains, or a divided road even in the countryside, it is more likely São Tomé Island. Cocoa, coffee, and sugarcane plantations are also more common on São Tomé. The population is larger and the highest peak exceeds 2,000m.
The highest peak is about 950m, and the mountainous southern half is a nature reserve with few residents.
