Top Nature in Cape Verde

Don’t forget your snorkel gear! The waters around Tarrafal Beach have some great spots for snorkeling; just be careful of the waves, especially in the afternoon.

I suggest going around sunset, around 6 PM, for some stunning views and great photo ops. Plus, the crowd thins out a bit, so it's much more chill!

I suggest visiting around sunset (around 6:30 PM) for the stunning views without the midday heat. It's a total game-changer for your pics.

I think it's a good idea to bring your own snacks and drinks to the beach. There are a few vendors, but they can be pricey, and having your own stuff saved me some cash for the fun things.

I suggest going on a weekday if you can. It was way less crowded and more peaceful than on weekends. Plus, you get to enjoy the gardens without rushing around.
