Description
We start in the south and drive along the east coast today. Off-road we go over sand dunes following the Atlantic and our first stop is the abandoned village of Curral Velho.
We will visit the former salt works and maybe we can even take some sea salt home with us!
We continue to Ervatao, where there is time for swimming and relaxing. We then head off-road to the “Farol Morro Negro” lighthouse, which is easy to climb at a height of around 150 metres. At the top, you are treated to a sensational view of the east coast. Sturdy shoes are better than flip flops. Then we go to Porto Ferreira, where we can't stop marvelling. Shells of fencing snails can be collected here for meditation; a paradise for shell lovers.
Finally, we head to the province of Norte, where we stop at a typical Cape Verdean restaurant in the idyllic town of Fundo das Figeiras. After dinner, there will be time to stroll through the village and look at the church, for example. The journey back to the hotel takes us through the region of Norte and, of course, along “Route 66”!
