Discover the best of Sal Island in one day on a small-group tour led by a certified local guide.
Explore Sal beyond the beach on a comprehensive island tour designed to bring you closer to Cape Verde’s landscapes, culture, and traditions. Travel in a small group with a certified local guide and enjoy a comfortable day discovering Sal’s most iconic spots—from fishing villages to volcanic landscapes, natural pools, and unforgettable viewpoints.

Start your day with a pick-up from your hotel and depart for Santa Maria, where you will visit the island’s historic salt pans. Continue to Murdeira Bay to admire the famous silhouette of Lion Mountain and enjoy panoramic coastal views.

In Espargos, the island’s capital, take a stroll through the city center and get a feel for everyday life on Sal. Then, head to Palmeira, a charming fishing village where colorful boats and the ocean breeze create a picturesque setting.

Next, discover one of Sal’s natural wonders: Buracona, home to the legendary Blue Eye and impressive natural pools. After that, you will cross desert-like landscapes to witness the mirage phenomenon, a unique optical illusion that occurs in the heat.

To end on a truly memorable note, stop at Parda Reef, where you can observe lemon sharks in their natural habitat. Finally, visit the famous Salinas and experience the surprising sensation of floating effortlessly in the highly salty water inside a volcanic crater.
