1) Canoa
Close to Rife and inside Murdeira’s bay, Canoa is the easy and safe spot of Sal. Wind is side/side off, waves are small and easy to surf, no difficult shore break. This easy riding spot is ideal for all riders.

2) Ponta Preta - If you think you have already seen everything you are greatly mistaken. Take a taxi, rent a pick-up, or take a walk, but do not forget to come in Ponta Preta! It is located about 1 km after Ponta do Sino. (Sal anyone knows the way to Ponta Preta!). Here it is a mecca for surfers, the legendary spot of Trilogy Windsurfing and Kite Board Pro Tour on these waves is at home Josh Angulo, who know every inch of the bed until really dare 'last moments ... I recommend you do not try to imitate him ... It 'a beautiful sandy bay with a touch of rock. You enter the water from the lee shore, being very careful with the shore break, which can chew on the days biggest equipment before you even be wet!
If you fall into the waves and you lose the equipment, prepare to retrieve the rocks. And 'the most beautiful wave of Sal, and according to many one of the most beautiful view of the planet! Here is only for real experts, who can indulge themselves in numbers between giant waves with windsurfing, kite surfing or ... you choose! All the best wave rider in the world, we have gone out at least once! It 'a wave fits only experienced windsurfers, fringes on the rocks of the tip and roll for several hundred meters until you reach the beach and join the shore break. The wind enters starboard side off shore up to 25 knots. L 'wave has three sections: if the wind is strong, the main peak may have some chop, but then the' wave becomes glassy and Tubantia. The swell to work the best spot is from N-NW by W while breaking waves are much faster. The advice is to take good measures and understand the timing of 'wave before attempting to enter.

3) Ponta Leme Velho - Located in front of the 'Albatros Hotel, right in front of the center of Josh Angulo and is one spot available and suitable for people who want to learn or ride a freeride freestyle. Tack on the left side off and upwind of the country. Since there
are at the end of the beach you have some problem with the rocks that are at Leme Velho, near the shore but there are also some beautiful ramps to get a good jump. When the sea is a bit 'thick can form the shore break. From here you can start with upwind and out of Ponta Leme Velho, (then exit from the bay), where you can find waves up to a couple of meters, and during swell even larger.

4) Santa Maria - The town beach, next to the pier, soon frequented by surfers, but very beat of the surf from beginners who crowd the beach especially in the morning until 08:00 and the afternoon after 14:00, when the waves begin to become interesting. Spot on the left side off walls, suitable primarily for freestyle and freeride.

5). Salinas (Kite Beach)
Kitebeach is the best kitesurfing place of Sal. The spot is only 5 minutes driving from the center of Santa Maria. This is an easy spot, good for learning: the beach is very long so the spot is never too crowded, there’s no dangerous currents, the coral reef creates an easy wave for safe wave riding. The wind is side-shore to side onshore, coming from the left and steady most of the time.

6). Ali Baba
A rare jewel that is considered by all visitors to be one of the most perfect waves in the World. Comparable waves such as J-Bay in south Africa have had successful communities and economies built around such a treasure as Ali Baba. The “patrimnio” that Ali Baba brings to Cabo Verde compares only to that of Ponta Preta and the wind corridor that serves Ponta Leme and Santa Maria Bay.

Ponta do Sino - This spot is at the end of the beach villages, where it stalled, "the former" beautiful sailing ship of Americanino Jeans! One of the best spots, excellent conditions for all and a little dangerous. Very popular with wind surfers mid-level, in fact in the winter you will find some beautiful pipes! You exit port tack with the wind side shore side or on-off. Better to avoid the occasional shore break and the edges are too long, otherwise you might have a problem to return.


Rife and Calheta Funda - There are two spots close enough to each other, both with tacks to the right side off / side shore. You can reach along the same road. From Santa Maria is taking the long way 's airport after about 11 km are on the left a sign indicating Calheta Funda, here take the' single dirt road and takes you straight to the beach. The spots on the right side off walls are ideal for those who want to improve the wave, but not for beginners, even if the waves are not very bad.

Serra Negra - If you go down to Santa Maria, and you leave behind the Hotel Albatros, going north you will reach the beautiful wide beach of Los tiburones "(sharks) and do not be intimidated by the name! However for the rash is an excellent spot to learn to jump or for kite. The wind on shore side, port tack helps us to fall quickly in the event of "unexpected" ....
