On the main road to the beach and well signposted, this outdoor social enterprise cafe has palm-fringed huts in lovely botanic surroundings. It serves up good coffee, fresh juices and homemade sponge cake. It's a popular hangout for local expats (mostly Portuguese teachers) and others doing business in Oecusse. The nuns also offer simple guesthouse accommodation.
