A DRONE flight high over the caldera of FOGO ISLAND on scenically dramatic
FOGO Island, CAPE VERDE, showcasing the amazing volcanic landscape of this island.
Fogo is an island in the Sotavento group of Cape Verde. It reaches the highest altitude of all the islands in Cape Verde, rising to 2,829 metres (9,281 feet) above sea level at the summit of its active volcano, Pico do Fogo.
Fogo was discovered in 1460 by Genovese captain António de Noli on behalf of Henry the Navigator and the Portuguese Crown. It appeared in a 1598 map as I. de Fogo. Fogo was the second island of Cape Verde that was settled by the Portuguese, between 1470 and 1490, making São Filipe the second oldest town of Cape Verde after Cidade Velha.
The Fogo volcano erupted frequently, both from the summit and from flank fissures, notably in 1680, 1725, 1857, 1951, 1995, and 2014-15. The eruption of 1680 covered much of the island in ash, which forced many inhabitants to flee to the nearby island of Brava.
