Cap Vert – Around Santa Maria south of Sal

Good Day !

D'avant atterrir à Sal, Island beaches, we did Escale à Sao Vicente, Island Arts and Culture. We were welcomed to the new year with an earthen pot containing a flour and cinnamon. Then the paperwork. Not very friendly customs. I recommend you plan on cash. They have no terminal CB. And we had to negotiate hard on request to enter into clandestine airport, accompagné of course, to remove biftons. There is no point to pay in advance with the Embassy because the fees will be higher. On your site visa for Cape Verde will cost25 euros. Of course if your tour operator formula included the visa. Go your way. And rather apréciez the vue offered by the airport of Sao Vicente on the vertiginous volcanic mountains by erosion. (c resembles dark mineral vu à aux Canaries Lanzarote)

Hop on, off to Sal 30 minutes flat. Seen from a window of land clear and dry springs in the middle of the ocean. Heat of the wind, Horizon aride the eye. Welcome to the island of Sal. Is located north of the archipelago of Cape Verde, Sal Island is known for its high content of salt.

Here not in a green mountain hiking. But a tussle with the wind on this island of contrasts with the other islands of the archipelago. Here no Cap. No Green. A land barren and wind ubiquitous. The bi-color yellow and tastes blue taxis on the island of Sal promise a shipment of contrasts between land and sea we arrived at the hotel, I am eager to soak up the sun before the sun layer (soon 18h30/19h) and stretch my legs along the Ponta Preta beach.
