A great sailing trip, with great hosts - The trip was amazing from the moment dropped off to the beach and welcomed onboard by Daisy, Cami and Denil
We were lucky enough to see dolphins, turtles and snorkelling to see the Jesus statue at the bottom of the ocean!
Would def recommend this excursion

Beautiful sailing boat trip with great crew - Friendly experienced crew who made me feel welcome and included despite me being deaf. Lovely sailing boat and only 5 adults and 2 children on the trip so plenty of room on the boat. We saw lots of flying fish and had a really nice sail round the island. Highlight was seeing 2 turtles on our return and Daniel and other crew member took time to make sure we got a close look. Well recommended

Fabulous trip! - Great staff, and very accommodating as they were happy to spend longer so we could see the turtles. They didn’t over book so we had a lot of space around the boat (unlike their competitors). I enjoyed it so much that I booked on for the catamaran the next day.
I would 100% recommend and will see them again for another trip!

Life is amazing - Our group went on the half day sailing yacht trip with Delvi and Daniel and we had the best time! They were so fun to spend the day with and chat with. We were picked up from our resort reception and driven to the beach. We saw dolphins, flying fish, stingray and a turtle, and we hopped off the boat part way through for a snorkel as well. Would definitely recommend 👍 Life is amazing 🤙

Boat tour - Nice experience but it was not phew we saw 3 flying fish but that is independent of nature. I find the price quite expensive for what it is and for a child the price is even more exorbitant.

Catamaran Sailing Afternoon from Santa Maria, Sal – A Breathtaking Ocean Adventure - If you're looking for an unforgettable afternoon on the water in Sal, Cape Verde, this catamaran sailing experience is a must! From the moment we set sail from Santa Maria, the trip was pure relaxation and excitement rolled into one.
The catamaran itself was spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped, with plenty of room to lounge in the sun or enjoy the shade. The crew were fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready with a refreshing drink or some interesting facts about the marine life around us.
The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly the wildlife. We were lucky enough to spot two humpback whales in the distance, their massive flukes disappearing beneath the waves in a breathtaking display. As if that wasn’t magical enough, flying fish darted across the surface of the water, right across the bow, gliding for incredible distances before vanishing into the sea again.
We even had time once moored up to swim and snorkel around the boat spotting the many small fish that used the hull as shelter.
The whole experience felt like a perfect blend of adventure and tranquility. Whether you’re soaking up the stunning ocean views, enjoying the gentle breeze, or hoping for an up-close encounter with marine life, this catamaran trip is an absolute gem.
Highly recommended for anyone visiting Sal!
