Does this page cover all of Horta?

It covers every category Fontavio has enough mapped places for in Horta today. A category appears here once enough places in it have been added and confirmed, so a missing one means thin coverage rather than nothing on the ground.

What if a place has moved or is gone?

Report it from the app. A person reviews it, and water-safety reports are looked at first.

Is the tap water safe to drink in Portugal?

Yes. Portugal's water regulator, ERSAR, reports that its safe-water indicator for tap water has held at 99% for years, and WHO and UNICEF put safely managed drinking water at 95.2% for 2024. Figures, sources and the dates they were checked: https://fontavio.com/portugal/tap-water/

Is the water from a public tap or fountain the same as the tap water in Portugal?

Not necessarily. Old public fountains, chafarizes and village springs aren't all on the treated supply. A sign saying água não potável means the water isn't safe to drink, and a fountain with no sign hasn't necessarily been tested. Use fountains marked água potável and check the spout. When you find one on the coast or along the Camino, add it to Fontavio or review it for the next walker.
