Sal Island all-inclusive adults-only catamaran cruise with optional transfers

4.6/5
2212 reviews

The Sal coastline is a perfect backdrop for a cruise – and this adults-only catamaran trip makes the very best use of it. Sailing leisurely through the azure seas between Palmeira and Monte Leão, you'll sunbathe, sip on cocktails and enjoy a stop for swimming too. Maria, one of our expert local guides, says, "the crew on board really make this experience stand out. Super professional yet always ready for fun, and talented at creating a stylish, celebratory and relaxed atmosphere for the cruise."

If you've opted for transfers, your day kicks off with a pick‑up from your hotel and a ride to the meeting point in Palmeira, where you'll hop aboard a brand‑new catamaran. Setting sail, you'll soon be watching the coastline glide by as your captain cruises along the island's west coast. All you need to do is pick the perfect spot to sit back and soak up some rays – and choose which drink you'd like first. The friendly and knowledgeable crew will be on hand to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the journey.

Sounds like ultimate relaxation, right? On board, you'll be spoilt for choice with complimentary drinks and snacks, with local music to really get you in the holiday mood. As we approach our idyllic location near Monte Leão, your skipper will anchor the boat, allowing you to take a swim in open waters. After we've dropped anchor, you can also lounge on the nets above the shimmering water – the ideal place to bask in the warm Cape Verde sun.

    £230 for an hour in the sea and two trips around 50 mins wash, there & back in the boat is massively overpriced. The staff make an effort but I wouldn’t do it again for what you get it’s not good value. Boat trips were a full day now it appears they want to do two a day

    £60 for 2 glasses of Prosecco-choppy seas and no gluten free food other than fruit. Honestly a waste of our money. I told the rep in the hotel about an intolerance and he said ‘no problem we will give plenty of notice for you to have food’ There was nothing but fruit to eat on board and it was laughable. The sea was ridiculously choppy making people unwell which also meant no dancing or drink too ups at certain points making it lack value to for money. No guide as we travelled or anything.
