Hello, I'm Poentis!

The most curious turtle on Terceira Island and best friend to every child at Olhar Poente.

Who is Poentis?

Poentis is a green turtle with an orange neckerchief who loves watching the sunset from the hills of Agualva. He moves slowly but never gives up — and that's why he always gets where he wants to go!

He joins the children in their games, parties and holiday camp adventures, and reminds everyone that we all grow at our own pace.

Things Poentis loves

  • Listening to stories before nap time
  • Playing in the street (it's serious business!)
  • Blue hydrangeas and dips in the sea
  • Sunsets, of course!
