Boavista: Santa Monica beach, cave, sand dunes & shipwreck

Desert of Viana Huge white sand dunes. With small oases where you will find acacia bushes, palm trees, coconut and date palms. Nature is pure as it should be. The desert of Viana is an extension of the famous Sahara desert, but now on an island in the middle of the Atlantic. A beautiful landscape worth a visit.

Santa Monica Beach The most beautiful beach in Cape Verde. The beach is very long (18 miles) and deserted. Here you can walk barefoot across the vast, deserted white sand beach and relax from the stress of the cities.

Varandinha beach / sand cave It is a quiet beach in the southwest of the island of Boa Vista. It is considered a paradise beach as it is crossed by rocks that divide the vast sand into smaller areas.

To an abandoned beach where the shipwreck of the MS Cabo Santa Maria has been docked for more than 50 years. Today it is an important sight and a symbol of Boavista. The rusty cargo ship is located off the enchanting coast, right on Praia de Atlanta beach. Over the years, the sea has gradually dismantled the ship. There is something mysterious about the current state of the shipwreck and the location. Very impressive!

A small village where the locals work with clay ceramics, you will have the opportunity to discover the daily life of the local communities.
