What a day well spent! Definitely one of the highlights of my trip in Cape Verde. From start to finish everything was perfectly organized between the two islands. The enthusiasm and friendliness of the guides to make me discover the best part of Santo Antao was amazing. We had such a good time as well as a delicious lunch. The island is stunning and my only regret was not to have spent more time there. Next time ! If you are in Sao Vicente, don’t be put off by the ferry ride (it was ok), you won’t regret it.

With this hike discover the exotic road to Paúl valley, the garden of Cabo Verde. The path goes from cottage to cottage, crossing vegetable crops (cabbage, tomato, corn, yam, beans) and tropical fruits or grains (banana, guava, sugar cane, coffee), combining it with meeting the locals. This is an opportunity to discover the local rural life: walking through mule trails, built by men at the feet of the "levadas" (irrigation canals) and terraced crops.
