Experience the fascinating east side of Boa Vista on a varied full-day tour full of nature, history and local culture.
Our tour begins with a breathtaking panoramic view of Ponta Pesqueira. From there, we will drive to the abandoned village of Curral Velho, the oldest settlement on the island, where you will learn more about the history of Boa Vista.
Then we visit the historic salt mine, where you can take a small salt stone with you as a special souvenir. Along the wild east coast, we continue to the beautiful João Barrosa Beach, which impresses with its untouched landscape.
Another highlight is the famous baobab, also known as the “Tree of Life.” After that, the beautiful beach of Ervatão awaits us, one of the most important nesting areas for sea turtles on Boavista. Here, you will have time to swim, relax, and enjoy the crystal-clear water.
For lunch, we will drive to the charming village of Fundo das Figueiras, known for its colourful houses and blooming gardens. There we will enjoy a traditional Cape Verdean lunch at a local restaurant. The village is also the birthplace of Aristides Pereira, the first President of the Republic of Cape Verde.
Finally, we'll drive along the famous Route 66 to the impressive Viana Desert, one of the seven natural wonders of Cape Verde. There you will have the opportunity to glide down the fine desert sand while sandboarding and experience the unique landscape.
After an eventful day, we will take you back to your hotel.
