Means of transport São Vicente

The new airport, renamed after the "Barefoot Diva", is located in São Pedro, 15 minutes from Mindelo. It can now accommodate international flights from all over the world. There is an ATM, an agency to buy inter-island tickets, car rental, souvenir and music stores and a café. Free Wi-Fi is available. A bus runs every 30 to 45 minutes between Mindelo and São Pedro during the day and stops near the parking lots.

Founded in 2005, it is the only marina in the country, run by two Germans, Lutz and Kai. In order to meet the needs of maritime leisure, 720 m of pontoon were created, 150 berths for boats up to 50 m long and a maximum draught of 5.5 m. The structure can accommodate more than 120 boats and offers (almost) all the facilities you would expect from a marina: gas, diesel, water, electricity and facilities such as showers, Wi-Fi and even a super friendly floating bistro where we talk about navigation before anything else, of course.

CV Interilhas is the company operating between the islands, in charge of transporting passengers and cargo. Before going to the agency, check the schedules and rotations on their website. It is strongly recommended to buy your tickets (round trip) the day before, as schedules are subject to change. This has become almost the norm in Cape Verde, but it tends to improve with the centralization of shipping companies. To buy tickets, you can also contact the travel agencies scattered throughout the country, which are well versed in this field.
