About this experience

Short on time but keen to see the best of Sal? Our Private Half-Day Tour takes your group, with a guide and vehicle all to yourselves, to five hand-picked stops — in about 4 hours.

Itinerary 1 — Santa Maria salt flats, Kite Beach, Palmeira, the “Blue Eye” of Buracona and the Terra Boa mirage.

Itinerary 2 — Murdeira, Espargos, the lemon sharks of Baía da Parda, floating in the Pedra de Lume salt flats and Ponta Preta beach.

The price is per group and depends on the number of people. Groups of 8 or more travel by minivan.
