Boa vista island, Cape Verde

Boavista Go - Tours & Expeditions

Experience an engaging half-day excursion along the western coast of Boavista, where participants can enjoy dune sandboarding and a thrilling 4x4 tour. This adventure offers the opportunity to observe unique marine life such as green turtles and lemon sharks. Additionally, indulge in a culinary journey by savoring local delicacies.



Welcome to the western shores of Boavista Island, Portugal, where nature has bestowed its finest gifts upon us. Our journey begins at your accommodation, where we will transport you via a spacious 4x4 SUV, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride. Upon arrival at Morro de Areia, also known as the "Mountain of Sand," we shall embark on our first adventure. This breathtaking location offers a miniature version of the Sahara Desert, presenting an awe-inspiring panorama.

Following this initial excitement, we proceed to explore one of the most exciting activities available on the island: Sandboarding. This exhilarating sport allows participants to glide effortlessly across the dunes, reminiscent of a child's carefree play. As we continue our journey, we traverse through the dune landscape, admiring the stunning coastal views.

Our next destination takes us to Turtle Bay, "Baía de Tartaruga." Here, we witness a rare spectacle – observing wildlife in their natural environment. The Green Turtles, a species unique to these shores, exhibit behaviors typical of wild creatures, demonstrating their joyous existence.

Next, we make our way to Shark Bay, "Baía de Tubarão," where the sea conditions allow us to encounter the elusive Lemon Shark. This extraordinary aquatic creature adds another layer of wonder to our day, showcasing the rich biodiversity of the region.

Having experienced the thrill of exploration and interaction with marine life, we conclude our excursion with a visit to the historic Old Village of Povoação Velha. This charming community, once home to farmers, fisherfolk, and goat breeders, now offers visitors a glimpse into rural life. The traditional cuisine served within the cozy dining area provides a delightful culinary treat.

Our tour concludes with a memorable moment of relaxation and cultural immersion, during which you may indulge in local delicacies such as Rum (Grogue), a potent spirit often enjoyed in three consecutive sips, reputedly enhancing conversation skills. These experiences are complemented by a selection of traditional Portuguese wines, creating a harmonious blend of nature, adrenaline, and local flavors.

We look forward to welcoming you aboard and embarking on this enchanting journey together.
