Where we are

We are up on the Fortim, on the slope above the bay: a quiet residential street away from the night-time noise, yet the town centre, the beach and the viewpoint are all a few minutes' walk away.

  • 2 min — Fortim d'El-Rei viewpoint
  • 10 min — Laginha beach
  • 12 min — town centre and Praça Nova
  • 15 min — harbour and Santo Antão ferry terminal
  • 20 min by car — Cesária Évora airport

The house sits on a slope. We arrange transfers from the airport or the harbour on request — ask for the price when you book. To plan your stay, see our guide to Mindelo and São Vicente.
