Highlights

Enjoy Sal Island's most authentic Lemon Shark Experience led by a native certified nature guide. Unlike simply watching sharks from a distance, you'll safely enter the shallow waters of Shark Bay, where juvenile lemon sharks swim naturally around you in their protected nursery.


Spend around 40 minutes in the water learning about the behaviour, biology and conservation of these remarkable animals while enjoying a safe and respectful wildlife encounter.


Water shoes are included free of charge for your comfort and safety, and small groups ensure a more personal experience with plenty of time to observe, ask questions and take unforgettable photos. This is a unique opportunity to connect with Cape Verde's marine life while supporting responsible and sustainable wildlife tourism.

Itinerary

  • Shark Bay

    Join the ultimate Sal Island Lemon Shark Experience with a native certified nature guide and discover these fascinating animals in their natural habitat. After pickup from your hotel or accommodation, travel to the famous Shark Bay on the east coast of Sal Island. Accompanied by your guide, you'll safely walk into the shallow, knee-deep waters where juvenile lemon sharks use the bay as their natural nursery. Spend around 40 minutes in the water as young lemon sharks, typically measuring between 50 cm and 1 metre, swim naturally around you. If you're lucky, you may also spot larger adult lemon sharks from a safe distance, as the shallow water prevents them from approaching any closer. Throughout the experience, your native certified guide will explain the behaviour, life cycle and ecological importance of these fascinating animals, making this a safe, educational and unforgettable wildlife encounter. Water shoes are included free of charge, allowing you to enjoy the experience safely and comfortably before returning to your accommodation.
