Traveling within the Island
There are three ways to travel within the island.
1. The most obvious and easiest way is by renting a car. This would cost you more than the other options but is practical.
2. Travel as the locals do and get a collective minivan. We call them ''Yas'' and you can find them behind Sukupira market and they will take you to every corner of the island.
3. Take a taxi our tour operator. You can find your own of course, but our trusted taxis will charge you :
to/from Tarrafal: 6000 CVE or 60 EUR one way
to/from Cidade Velha: 1000 CVE or 10 EUR one way
