Description

We'll pick you up at your hotel by minibus at 9:00 AM. We'll begin the tour by traveling south of Sal Island, where we'll see the Santa Maria pier and salt flats. Then, we'll head towards Murdeira Bay. After swimming in its refreshing waters, we'll head to the fishing village of Palmeira. From there, we'll head to Buracona Lagoon, a beautiful natural pool. We'll continue our tour through the Terra Boa desert, whose landscapes will surprise us with a curious mirage. Our next stop will be in the island's administrative capital, Espargos, where you'll have an hour of free time to enjoy lunch on your own. With our energy recharged, we'll climb to a famous viewpoint to admire the island's views. The tour continues towards the shores of Parda Bay, famous for being the natural habitat of lemon sharks. Very close by are the Pedra de Luma salt flats. Nearby are a series of lagoons where, like the Dead Sea, you can float in their waters. A perfect opportunity to tone your skin naturally! Then, we'll begin the journey back to your hotel on Sal Island. Arrival is scheduled for 5 p.m.
