Cape Verde sailing trip

Every day at sea is followed by a full day on one of the Cape Verde islands. On the islands we organise excursions with local guides. During the sailing trip you are warmly invited to help with all activities on board, such as setting the sails, steering and navigation. Life on board is pleasant and comfortable thanks to the efforts of the ship's cook and crew. An unforgettable holiday in Cape Verde!
Cape Verde Islands

Cape Verde lies in the Atlantic, about 600 kilometres off the coast of Senegal. The archipelago has around 450,000 inhabitants and consists of 9 inhabited and several uninhabited islands. We will be island hopping. On and around the Cape Verde Islands there is much to discover. The waters are rich in flying fish, tuna, sea turtles and whales. The varied landscape consists of steep terraced fields with banana and coffee plantations, sandy deserts, black volcanoes and a wild, deep blue ocean.
Climate in Cape Verde

The tropical climate and the trade winds make Cape Verde a true sailors' paradise. After a day at sea we spend a full day on one of the islands. The crew will show you the most beautiful spots of the archipelago.

SAL, SANTIAGO AND SÃO VICENTE

The Cape Verde holiday begins on the island of Sal. In the late afternoon you go aboard and the crew welcomes you. After a restful night we set sail towards the island of Santiago.
In the early morning of the third day we drop anchor in Tarrafal. After a full day and a night on Santiago we set sail towards São Vicente. In clear weather we might be able to see the active volcano Fogo. We spend the night at sea. At sunrise land comes into sight. First São Vicente and shortly afterwards Santo Antão. We anchor in the bay of Mindelo, the second largest city and the second largest harbour of Cape Verde. There are restaurants, a market hall, cafés and souvenir shops. In the afternoon there is time to explore the city.
SANTO ANTÃO

Santo Antão is considered the most beautiful island of the archipelago. It is also the greenest and most fertile of the islands. We undertake a hike through the varied landscape on the edge of the volcano, and the breathtaking views make this excursion an unforgettable experience.

SÃO NICOLAU

The destination on São Nicolau is also called Tarrafal. We anchor directly off the harbour. Tarrafal is a peaceful fishing village where we are welcomed with open arms. There is hardly any tourism here, and at least half of all fishermen sail rather than use motorised boats. On São Nicolau we visit the beautiful weathered basalt formations and drive up to the last remnants of a primeval forest in the "Monto Gordo" national park to undertake a hike there. There are grogue distilleries here, and if one of them is open, we stop to see how this process works.
BOA VISTA
In the early morning of the third day we drop anchor in Tarrafal. After a full day and a night on Santiago we set sail towards São Vicente. In clear weather we might be able to see the active volcano Fogo. We spend the night at sea. At sunrise land will come into sight. First São Vicente and shortly afterwards Santo Antão. We anchor in the bay of Mindelo, the second largest city and the second largest harbour of Cape Verde. There are restaurants, a market hall, cafés and souvenir shops. In the afternoon

is Boa Vista known for its beautiful beaches and remarkable wandering dunes. Our guide awaits us amongst the local fishermen on the pier at Sal Rei. He tells us about the island, its history and the turtle conservation programme for which he works. They are trying to protect the world's second-largest population of loggerhead turtles. He will take us across the island in 4x4 vehicles.
