Message from Karol Kru

Gruta de Ana Ferreira, located on Porto Santo island, is a cave steeped in legend and mystery. According to popular belief, it served as a hiding spot for the illegitimate daughter of King João II, keeping her safe from pirate attacks while living away from prying eyes. The cave's name pays homage to this hidden history, adding an intriguing layer to the island's rich tapestry of stories.
