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 still has a small, village atmosphere. When you land in Palmeira you will have just completed an Atlantic Crossing, or at least a hefty 2700km sail south from Europe. Whilst resting in Palmeira, visit some bars and restaurants, or explore further to desert Oases, caves and beaches.
