Laga
A seaside town about 20 km east of Baucau, with an old Portuguese administrative post and a parish church. The coastal road makes it a must-stop on the eastbound route.
Laga lies about 20 km east of Baucau on the north coast and is a required stop on the way to Los Palos and Jaco Island. The town still has its old Portuguese-era administrative post (Posto) and a white parish church. By the sea, local people fish and make salt. Along the coast road, the blue strait lies on one side and steep limestone hills rise on the other, offering wide views throughout. It is a good place for a half-hour to one-hour break on the eastbound journey, and the town has a few simple eateries.
