Fogo National Park
National park
👍👍 Es lohnt sich wirklich, den Fogo Nationalpark mit der Caldera, dem Rand der Caldera und vielleicht auch dem Pico do Fogo zu besuchen. Von São Filipe gibt es Sammel-Taxis und natürlich auch geführte Touren zur Caldera. Dort oben kann man viel über Vulkanismus lernen, geführte Wanderungen unternehmen....

The Pier of Santa Maria
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Wenn man morgens sehr früh da ist, kann man sehen wie die Fischer die Fische auf den Steg bringen und vorbereiten/Ausnehmen. Es ist aber auch zeitweise sehr voll mit Touristen. Es lohnt sich aber auf jeden Fall. Glasklares Wasser, heller Sand und frische Fische.

👍👍 What a beautiful place. The owner builded the place himself. Took years to accomplish it. He used what the sea and the earth gave him. Get into it. It is an immersive experience. On Friday’s night music om the roof.

Dune of Sal
Tourist attraction
👍 Stunning beach with private parasols and sun beds. In the summer months you can watch turtles hatch and make their way to the sea.

Shark Bay
Tourist attraction
😐 This is a great attraction especially if you are into wildlife and aquatic life. It is a long and bumpy ride to get to the area allocated for shark viewing. It is not a main stream activity so there is no cafe/bar/restaurant on site just local entrepreneurs selling their wares. You have to walk over...
