Fora Islet, in Portuguese Ilhéu de Fora ("outer islet"), 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 (size: 500 x 300 m) 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 (Cory's shearwater, for example). The climate is dry and there is very little soil.
