Description

Begin your day in Santa Maria, where fishermen pull in their nets and the terraces slowly come to life. Follow your guide into this lively atmosphere, where the smell of spices and warm smiles will immediately put you in the Cape Verdean mood. Following the coastal road, reach Murdeira, a peaceful setting facing the famous Lion Mountain. Its majestic figure stands out against the ocean, offering one of those panoramas that will remain in your memory for a long time. Next, head to Buracona, a natural gem. Between its natural pools and the fascinating Olho Mágico, an azure blue circle that sparkles in the sun, the place exudes a special magic. Continue through Terra Boa, where the heat makes mirages dance. Here, the desert takes on the appearance of an African mirage, and the moment invites silence. In Espargos, the island's lively capital, energy returns: colorful markets, tropical fruit stalls, small shops... a snapshot of local life. Then, nestled in the crater of an ancient volcano, the Pedra de Lume salt flats appear. Here, time seems to stand still. Let yourself be carried away by the salt water, floating as if gravity had disappeared—a unique moment between well-being and laughter. Finally, enjoy a typical lunch in a desert restaurant before a final drive along Cabo Canaveral and Ponta Preta with its golden dunes. The ocean stretches as far as the eye can see, as if to wish you a safe return to Santa Maria.
