So book a flight to Praia and...

Enjoy the sun

Praia means “beach” (literally). Quebra Canela, Mar, Gamboa, Negra... you only have to pick one (or all!). Some have white sand, others black sand, but each is a paradise, with unbelievable fauna and flora. The Tarrafal beach, on the north, is very popular among surfers and water sports fans.

Feel the city’s pulse

As a city, Praia has modernized to become a complete cultural program. Besides a tour on the Plateau, historical district, there are countless bars and restaurants to enjoy the typical flavors and listen to the warm sounds of the cape verdean soul. Another must do is the Central Market, where you can find the traditional cloths and handicrafts.
