Sal is an island in Cape Verde belonging to the Barlavento Islands, and is over eighteen miles long and over seven miles wide. The beaches in Sal tend to be very quiet, offering a tranquil place for those looking for the ultimate relaxing getaway. With acres of sand and welcoming blue skies, the weather here is spectacular which adds to the beauty of the island.
The main resort to visit on Sal would be the bustling Santa Maria, which offers many shopping opportunities and leisure facilities to discover, yet still manages to hold a laid back atmosphere. Often described as 'lunar-like' Sal really does offer travellers that once in a lifetime holiday.
