Overview

Discover the magic of nesting turtles on this adventure tour of Santa Maria. Join an evening excursion that takes you to the beaches of Sal Island, where the turtles come up to shore and nest. Travel in a comfortable and air-conditioned vehicle for this unique tour.
Get picked up at 8 PM from your accommodation and reach a beautiful deserted beach in less than an hour.

Be welcomed by your professional and trained tour guides, who will ensure a unique and environmentally conscious experience for all guests. Your guide will tell you everything about the evolution, characteristics, and curiosities of the turtles. Learn why their welfare is the top priority on the island.

Cape Verde is home to 3 species of turtles. The yellow turtle, also known as the common turtle, is the most common species in Cape Verde. The sandy beaches of Cape Verde are one of the most important locations for common turtle nesting. In small groups, you'll walk along the beach at night and watch out for turtles making their way up onto the sand.

If you're lucky enough to spot the turtles, take a seat and remain as silent as possible in order not to disturb them while nesting.
