Explore Santa Maria, the most visited city on Sal Island, a must-see destination in the Cape Verde archipelago!
Tour Highlights
We’ll meet at the iconic Morabeza Hotel, the first accommodation ever built on Sal Island. Once everyone has gathered, we’ll kick off our tour through Santa Maria.
Our journey begins with a stroll down the vibrant main street, lined with bars, restaurants, and souvenir shops. We’ll then head to the North zone to discuss the first houses that were built in the city.
The tour continues with a visit to the bustling Municipal Market and a stop at the Municipal Fountain, where locals collect water for homes without running water services.
Afterward, we’ll visit the Salt Museum, uncovering the history of the salt industry that gave the island its name. Finally, we’ll conclude our tour at the famous Pontao de Santa María.
After 3 hours of exploring and learning about Santa Maria, we'll conclude the tour.
