Qué pasa cuando se acaban tus GB

Un plan de GB es una cantidad fija de datos. Cuando se agota, los datos de esa eSIM se detienen y no se cobra nada automáticamente, pero puedes recargar la misma eSIM sin un código QR nuevo y comprobar lo que queda en cualquier momento desde la página de tu pedido.

Cómo comprobar tus datos y recargar

Cuántos datos necesitas realmente

A normal visitor here uses roughly 300MB–800MB a day, most of it messaging, maps and Portuguese translation. If you upload diving clips or video call home every evening, budget nearer 1.5GB a day instead.

Al aterrizar

The main gateway is Sao Tome International (TMS), only a few kilometres from town, with flights arriving mainly from Lisbon, Accra and Libreville. Principe has its own strip, Principe Airport (PCP) at Santo Antonio, reached on a 35-minute hop in a small aircraft from Sao Tome. Switch the line on as you land, because guesthouse pickups here are usually confirmed by message rather than at an airport desk.

Dónde cambia la cobertura

Service is densest in Sao Tome town and along the northern and eastern coast road where the villages line up. It thins or disappears once you are inside the Obo rainforest in the island's middle, around Pico Cao Grande, on the run south to Porto Alegre and on the offshore islets such as Ilheu das Rolas. On Principe it clusters around Santo Antonio, while the southern coast and the forest walking routes have effectively nothing, so download the offline map before you leave town.

Ciudades sobre las que preguntan los viajeros

  • Sao Tome: Bayside capital with Portuguese colonial buildings and the central market.
  • Santo Antonio: Principe's main town, tiny and much quieter than the big island.
  • Trindade: Hill town near the capital, on the way to waterfalls and old plantations.
  • Neves: Northern port town, the launching point for dive and fishing boats.
  • Porto Alegre: Far south end of the main island; long road in and patchy signal.

Apps para instalar antes de volar

  • WhatsApp, the channel guides, drivers and guesthouses use for almost everything
  • Google Translate con el paquete de portugués sin conexión
  • An offline map app such as OsmAnd or Organic Maps for the forest roads

Preguntas frecuentes

Will data still work when I go over to Principe?+

It works in Santo Antonio and the larger villages, but along the southern coast, on the forest trails and at the beaches you reach by boat, you can be out of range for long stretches. Save your maps, your domestic flight details and your accommodation's number to the device before you take the small plane over from Sao Tome, and fix pickup times while you still have signal rather than assuming you can call from the other end.

Do I need Portuguese to get around on my own?+

You do not need to speak it, but you should carry a translation app. Outside hotels and tour operators, English does not go far, and agreeing a car price, asking directions or ordering in a small restaurant usually ends with you holding the screen out for the other person to read. Download the offline Portuguese pack too, because the places where you most need it are often exactly the places where the signal is weakest.

How do I get between the two islands, and what should I prepare?+

Most people fly: a small aircraft between Sao Tome and Principe takes about 35 minutes. Boats do run, but the schedule is unreliable and the crossing takes far longer. Guesthouses and the domestic airline often confirm by message or email rather than through a full online system, so screenshot every confirmation and keep it on the device, and leave slack in your plans because domestic hops can shift with the weather.

¿Cuándo empieza a contar los días una eSIM de Santo Tomé y Príncipe?+

La mayoría de los planes aquí empiezan cuando el teléfono se conecta por primera vez a una red en el destino, así que puedes instalarlo con antelación en casa y activarlo al aterrizar. Cada página de plan indica su propia regla.

¿Tengo que quitar mi SIM habitual?+

No. La eSIM es una segunda línea, así que conservas tu número habitual para los SMS OTP. Desactiva el roaming de datos en la línea habitual y define la eSIM como línea de datos.
