Santo Antão Full Day

Discover the natural beauty of Santo Antao on a full-day guided tour from Sao Vicente. Explore the lush landscapes of the island's famous valleys and mountains.
Embark on an unforgettable full-day adventure from São Vicente to Santo Antão, starting bright and early with a ferry ride from the bustling port of Mindelo. As you glide over the turquoise waters towards Porto Novo, excitement builds for the journey ahead.

Once you arrive in Santo Antão, the adventure truly begins. A scenic drive takes you up the island’s legendary winding mountain roads, climbing towards Cova Crater, an extinct volcano now transformed into a lush, circular landscape. Surrounded by the towering peaks of the island’s dramatic mountain range, Cova offers breathtaking views and sets the stage for the next leg of the journey.

Here, you’re presented with two options. For those craving an immersive experience in nature, the first option is to descend into the famous Vale de Paul. This valley is often considered one of Cabo Verde’s most beautiful spots, with its terraced fields of sugarcane, coffee, and tropical fruits like papaya and banana. As you hike down the valley’s trails, you’ll breathe in the crisp mountain air, passing by small farms and enjoying the vibrant greenery that paints the landscape. It’s a paradise for nature lovers, where every corner reveals new shades of green, and the fresh, earthy scent of the valley’s lush vegetation fills the air.

Alternatively, if you prefer to continue by car, you can skip the hike and take the old road of Santo Antão. This scenic drive offers stunning views of the island’s rugged landscapes, weaving through mountain passes and offering glimpses of remote villages perched on cliffs. The drive leads to Chã de Pedras, a dramatic valley encircled by mountains, where banana and papaya trees thrive. This tranquil spot is perfect for soaking in the beauty of Santo Antão’s natural surroundings, with its vast green terraces and the distant sound of waterfalls.

After a day filled with the raw beauty of Santo Antão, the tour circles back to Porto Novo. You’ll board the afternoon ferry, watching the sun dip low as you sail back to São Vicente, carrying with you memories of breathtaking views, mountain air, and the island’s vibrant greenery.
