Program Description

Transfer from the hotel. After a short panoramic tour through the center of the village of Santa Maria, we'll drive through the residential area of Murdeira to the port of Palmeira and Buracona, famous for its natural pools where you can admire the fascinating Olho Mágico (“Magic Eye”). This stop is followed by a journey through the fertile Terra Boa region, where we will stop for 5 minutes to admire the mirages. We will then continue to Espargos, the capital and commercial center of the island of Sal, where we will stop at the Bom Dia café. Finally, the highlight of the island tour: a visit to the Pedra de Lume salt pans, where you will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in water 26 times saltier than seawater. After lunch at a local restaurant, we'll visit Shark Bay. Finally, we will return to Santa Maria, passing through the Cabocan tourist expansion zone, located along the beautiful Ponta Preta and Algodoeiro dunes.

A spectacular former desalination plant now converted into a tourist business. Swimming is available, just like in the Dead Sea.
