We loved the experience! We booked this through tripadvisor and contacted the provider with additional questions through WhatsApp. Everything went really smooth. They picked us up punctually at the hotel with a nice car and English speaking driver/guide. At the shark bay, we had another guide who went into the water with us. At that time of the day (14.30), there were not too many tourists there and several groups could be at separate spots on the shore and see the shark babies. Please DO NOT touch them. But you can see them really up close and there are several ones of different sizes around you all the time. The guide was really nice as well and taught us some interesting facts about them. He also showed us a sea snail and a sea urchin that we could pick up as well.
The experience was really impressive and I would definitely recommend doing this while on Sal! For me one of the highlights during our Cabo Verde vacation.
What was also great was that the Salinas are pretty close and we arranged for a second stop for a small surcharge (5 EUR / person) to go there as well with our driver. We could spend really nice time there as well. It all felt nice as it was virtually a private tour that was custom tailored to our interests.
Thanks again and would definitely recommend! :)
