Lounge Catamaran Half-Day No Stress Adventure
Sail, snorkel, sip, and soak up the Atlantic sun on a relaxed four-hour catamaran escape
This catamaran half-day trip on Sal Island is designed for travellers who want to experience the open Atlantic without the demands of a full-day excursion. Board a comfortable catamaran at Palmeira Marina, settle into the lounge area, and let the crew handle the rest.
The rocky coastline of Sal Island reveals a different character from the water. As the catamaran eases away from the harbour, guests are treated to panoramic views of volcanic terrain meeting turquoise sea, a perspective that is simply not available from the shore.
Between moments of relaxation on the deck, passengers can jump into the ocean for a swim or strap on a mask and fins to explore the underwater scenery. The crew provides snorkelling equipment and guidance so guests of all experience levels can participate.
As the boat makes its way back to the harbour, freshly prepared snacks are served on board alongside the rhythm of live African music and drums, rounding off the outing in a way that feels distinctly Cape Verdean.
