The catamaran slips from Sal Rei harbor with room for eight guests and a quiet determination: sail when the wind allows, anchor where the water invites. On a 90m² deck you’ll move easily from shaded cockpit to bow trampoline, the trade winds coaxing the canvas and the crew keeping the pace gentle and respectful of the bay.

The catamaran slips from Sal Rei harbor with room for eight guests and a quiet determination: sail when the wind allows, anchor where the water invites. On a 90m² deck you’ll move easily from shaded cockpit to bow trampoline, the trade winds coaxing the canvas and the crew keeping the pace gentle and respectful of the bay.
Boa Vista is geologically young volcanic terrain scoured by wind and waves; Sal Rei’s shallow bay holds sandy shoals, a rusting wreck and an islet that have become snorkeling magnets. Culturally, the town mixes Portuguese and African influences—local wines and Cape Verdean dishes feature fresh fish, corn-based sides and simple, hearty flavors you’ll taste on board.
Expect a rhythm of sailing, mooring and snorkeling across roughly seven hours. The itinerary typically includes sailing in Sal Rei Bay, stopping at a wreck for a swim, and anchoring off the Sal Rei islet for a relaxed meal and more snorkeling; times adapt to weather and guest preference. Mask and snorkel are provided; the crew serves a local meal and a glass of wine.
Practical tips: mornings often bring flatter seas and clearer water; take reef-safe sunscreen, a light windbreaker and a towel. If you’re prone to motion sickness, plan ahead—bring medication or pick a morning departure. The trip is private when booked and suitable for most fitness levels, but boarding a small tender or stepping onto the swim platform requires basic mobility. Bring ID, small cash for extras and a waterproof camera or case to capture the bay’s bright turquoise pockets and underwater life.
