Activity Details

We'll meet you at your accommodation in Sal Rei at the arranged time and transport you in a comfortable vehicle to the starting point of our quad tour through the Deserto de Viana and Cabo de Santa María. Thus, our exciting quad adventure kicks off!

The journey begins as we head towards the northern part of the island, arriving at one of the most photographed locations in Cape Verde: the Cabo Santa María beach. This remote and largely untouched stretch of coastline is home to the stranded ship, a Spanish freighter that has been grounded here since 1968, now standing as a symbol of Boa Vista. Be sure to capture this moment!

After admiring this remarkable wreck against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean, we’ll proceed to one of the island’s most surreal settings: the Deserto de Viana. Recognized as one of Cape Verde's Seven Natural Wonders, this area features breathtaking white dunes that stretch endlessly into the distance. Did you know that its unique shape is sculpted by the wind?

Following our exploration of the dunes, we’ll start making our way back. After concluding our quad riding experience, we will return you to your hotel in Sal Rei, wrapping up this 2.5 to 3-hour adventure.
