The Ruins of São Jorge take you back to the island's sugar cane era from the 15th century. Nestled in Calhau de São Jorge, these ruins were once bustling sugar mills that supplied Europe with sweet goodness. Don't miss the well-preserved pebble entrance portico and soak in the scenic beauty of Calhau de São Jorge while you're there.
