Palmeira (CV) - Palmeira (CV)

04 December - 15 December 2018

Relaxed Island Hopping in Cape Verde. If you ever wanted to visit the archipelago of Cape Verse, now is the time! There’s no better way to see an island country than by sailing from one place to another in a week-long cruise. Combine sailing with visiting beautiful places and getting your much deserved portion of sunlight in winter! Open for all Windseekers, minimum age 15 years. You’ll be sleeping in 4 person cabins. Places in double cabins available for a surcharge of 19,50 euro p.p. per night. Can’t get enough of Cape Verde? You can book up to two additional nights after the journey for EUR 39,50 for bed&breakfast or EUR 49,50 for full board.

Ports

Palmeira is the third-largest town in Cape Verde, situated on the island of Sal, yet it still retains that cosy small village atmosphere. When you land in Palmeira you will have just completed a crossing over the Atlantic waters. Whilst resting in Palmeira, visit some bars and restaurants to try local specialties, or explore further to desert Oases, caves and beaches.
