Reviews
One of my favourite places in Boa Vista! Every time I visit the vibe is unmatched and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. I snorkelled, kayaked and tried out skim boarding (100% recommend!) and had a great experience each time 🇨🇻 It’s also a lovely place for watching the sunset!
We were so lucky to have chosen the Windclub for our Wingfoiling lessons whilst staying in Sal Rei. Sean and his team are Cape Verdean through and through. Welcoming and fun watermen (and women) who want to share their love of the water, the sport and their environment. We cannot recommend highly enough, as long as there's room for our return trip next year! Keep up the fantastic work.. 🤟
