Praia is the capital of Cape Verde, located on the island of Santiago. It is a vibrant and culturally diverse city, with plenty to do and explore.

Warm weather makes it an ideal destination year-round, and the beaches are some of the best in Africa. Whether you're looking to relax or experience something new, there's something for everyone in Praia! Take a stroll along the boardwalk or take a boat tour to see some dolphins jumping alongside your vessel. Enjoy the nightlife at one of many shimmying clubs around town or take in traditional Fado music playing live in any one of dozens of bars throughout Praia.

For sightseers, there are two must-see attractions: The Cathedral da Nossa Senhora da Graca from 1847 and Forte Real de Sao Felipe which were both built by Portugal as part of their colonization pasted here . Both offer insights into Cape Verde's colonial history. If you're looking for something more contemporary, head over to Palacio da Assembleia Nacional for stunning views from atop its terrace or enjoy one last sunset at Posto 4 Praia before heading home!
