Just a short distance from Rabil, Praia de Morro de Areia unfolds as a tranquil haven on Boa Vista's western flank. This beach is uniquely characterized by its protective dunes, which cradle the shoreline, creating a sheltered environment. The sand here is a soft, golden expanse, perfect for sinking your toes into, while the Atlantic waters are often calmer and more inviting than on the island's exposed coasts.
“Its unique dune protection creates a sheltered, tranquil environment, offering calm waters and a serene escape on the west coast.”
