#2 Ferry to Santo Antao Island...


A picture of the ferry port in Mindelo city, Sao Vicente Island.  Sao Vicente is where the airport is – flew in from Amsterdam and had to take a night in the hotel here to catch the ferry to Santo Antao Island the next day. 

A look back at Mindelo from the ferry port, at boarding time. 

Ferry ride from Mindelo to Porta Novo (Santa Antao Island).  Only one hour, but quite scenic.  The ferry rolled quite a bit in the waves - difficult to walk and take pictures. 

Santo Antao Island in the distance.... 

Santa Antao does not have a functioning airport, although an old, disused runway remains in Ponta do Sol at the northern tip.
