Welcome to one of the most beautiful and welcoming islands, where a small, vibrant cosmopolitan city is alive with energy both day and night. Discover the rich history, culture, and lifestyle of the locals while admiring the colorful architectural style that makes the city so unique. Stroll through the bustling markets of Mindelo, including the Fish Market, African Market, and Municipal Market, each offering a lively glimpse into daily life on the island.
From a scenic lookout point, take in the best views of Mindelo, Monte Cara, and Laginha Beach, before heading out on a beautiful drive to Monte Verde, a protected natural park and the highest peak on Sao Vicente. The adventure continues as you visit the charming seaside fishing villages, where the simple, authentic way of life is still very much alive. Along the way, enjoy the breathtaking coastal landscapes and take a refreshing swim in the clear blue lagoon of Baía das Gatas.
As you explore further, reach the peaceful oasis of Calhau, a picturesque farming and fishing village nestled in a fertile valley. Home to Vulcao Viana, one of the island's last extinct volcanoes, Calhau offers a glimpse into traditional farming practices, complete with water wells, windmills, and livestock. This full day journey across São Vicente promises an unforgettable blend of natural beauty, vibrant culture, and authentic island life.
