Tarrafal Beach
10 Hannelore Van Der Meer

Upon traveling through the arid terrain of Santo Antão, we were instantly filled with a sense of calm and freedom as we arrived at Mar Tranquilidade. Susi and Frank have crafted a haven where we could retreat from our hectic daily routines. Our four-night stay here has been truly delightful - awakening to the soothing sounds of the ocean, observing whales during sunset, and savoring delectable dinners in wonderful company... our only disappointment was not prolonging our visit. We hold onto the hope that someday we will have the opportunity to come back.
