Cruises visiting Porto Novo (Cape Verde)

The coastal town of Porto Novo is located on the south-east coast of Santo Antão Island. Near the jetty, colourfully painted boats lie on the sand and the waterfront boasts beautiful vantage points overlooking the Atlantic and the nearby island of São Vicente. In the town centre, built at the foot of steep escarpments, youﾒll discover the low-profile, painted buildings that are typical of traditional Cape Verde architecture. And youﾒll definitely be tempted to sample one of the many desserts made from locally grown fruit, such as a banana tart or pawpaw flan.
