Step aboard our classic sailing yacht Lucy for a serene half-day cruise along the southwest coast of Sal Island. With just 8–10 guests on board, this is an intimate, wind-powered escape - ideal for couples, solo travelers, and families who prefer real sailing over crowded party boats. Feel the breeze as we glide along the coastline at a relaxed pace. Soak up the sun, enjoy the space, and sip a cold drink while our friendly crew serves light snacks and refreshments in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. We'll anchor for a short, optional swim or snorkel stop (weather and route depending). Gear is available, but the focus is on relaxed sailing - calm, quiet, and connected to the sea. No loud music, no crowds - just genuine sailing with heart. With 7+ years of experience, Cape Verde Sailing is trusted for authentic trips and warm hospitality.
