The photo below showing me sadly outside the closed museum doesn't meant there's nothing happening at the settlement. It's just none of the bars or museum or restaurants were open at 10:00am Monday.
It is a bit like the Causeway (Canberra reference): special housing of a remaining group of people tucked out of the way, but in this case so they can keep fishing. There were community notice boards with jobs and meetings (in engish). I imagine this being holy week there are a series of church events just getting up their head of steam. The community still speaks an archaic Portuguese, those who are there, although maintaining a language in a community of only 300 people has got to be a challenge. There is or was a website so I reckon I ought to contact them them, just in case I get to go back.
