Atlantico in un’ora. Lasciata la città entro un’ora e mezza ci si trova altrove, tanto altrove che si dimentica la metropoli alle spalle. Una giornata da incorniciare fra barche, grotte, pescatori, uccelli marini e tanta professionalità: autista, ragazzi della barca, guida sull’isola. Berlengas un sogno atlantico a pochi km, ci ha meravigliati!
