Fora Islet
Fora Islet, in Portuguese Ilhéu de Fora, is an uninhabited Portuguese island in the Atlantic Ocean, forming part of the Savage Islands, a dependant archipelago of the autonomous region of Madeira.
It lies about 300 kilometres from Madeira and 160 kilometres north of the Canary Islands. The islet has an area of 8 hectares and a maximum altitude of 18 metres.
The island is part of a nature reserve and is home to a variety of petrels. The climate is dry and there is very little soil.
In 19th-century English literature, the island was called the 'Little Piton'.
