The boat is the only transport between Santo Antao and the neighboring island of San Vicente. Formerly there was an airport but it was closed six years ago.
"Aluguer" is the public transport to travel on the island. Cars can be hired in the city of Porto Novo at a cost of 50 €/day. However it is possible to rent an alluguer for the day at 75€/day.
Finding an aluguer to move from one area to another is simple, as there are many on the island. The prices vary between 70ecv (0'60€) and 400ecv (3'60)€; depending on the distance. |
