South Boa Vista Tour Blends History, Beaches and Desert Landscapes


A guided excursion through southern Boa Vista is offering visitors a comprehensive journey through the island’s most diverse landscapes. Beginning with a hotel departure, the tour heads toward Povoação Velha, the oldest settlement on the island, where guests are introduced to its historic charm.


Visitors enjoy a short walk through the village’s traditional streets before continuing to Santa Mónica Beach, a long stretch of untouched coastline known for its calm waters and natural beauty. The stop provides time for relaxation, swimming, and appreciation of the island’s unspoiled scenery.


The route then follows the coastline to Varandinha Beach, passing distinctive lime and charcoal kilns along with the island’s unique tapuns structures, which reflect Boa Vista’s agricultural heritage. The journey continues inland to the Viana Desert, a striking landscape of wind-shaped dunes often described as a miniature Sahara.


On the return leg, the tour passes through Estância de Baixo and the scenic Ribeira de Rabil before heading back to the hotel. Combining cultural heritage, coastal beauty, and desert exploration, the excursion presents a well-rounded view of southern Boa Vista’s natural and historical highlights.
