Cala Da Lua

After Covid, I am resuming my travels. Now single :-) ... I wanted to tick "surfing" of my bucket list and looked for a real sufer spot. Something individual. If you come here, you know where you are going. Boa Vista is a small island with a few thousand inhabitants and about 4 larger hotels south of the island. Sal Rei is the (roughly 7,000 ppl) capital of the island and basically consists of a few houses and 5 beach bars. Cala da Lua is run by Alberto and his wife and about 150m from the beach. I chose this hotel because the pictures and feedback of the PlanetAllSports surf schools showed positive vibes. If you want to be welcome and get local tips, have a host, who cares and if you are aware that you are going to a 3rd world country - Cala da Lua is the perfect home for you. Alberto and his wife will take care of you. Get you a driver, a quad, organize everything you need. The Internet was too slow for me, Alberto got me a new LTE hotspot quickly (which you can now use, too, if you need 5MB+ to work)... There are 2-3 locations closer to the beach, but the penthouse suites with Cala da Lua are so big and beautiful, you will not leave too often. Wish I would have been here with friends... Wonderful spot, great people. And good breakfast!

In an attempt to rekindle our lovelife, we came here and it exceeded our expectations. The nights were wild, the days were beautiful. We were the only disturbers of the peace and for that we apologize to Alberto and Monica, anyhow much love to housekeeping. Also for the medical care after a heroic motorcycle adventure through Boa Vista (were I pushed it to the limit and crashed). We lost the deposit (and my dignity), to wrap it up it's an amazing place for surfing and love! No stress, peace, love and unity.

È disarmante accorgersi che la semplicità è complice della dedizione a ciò che si ama. Con la simpatia di Alberto e l'eleganza di Monica che gestiscono Cala da Lua con piglio e mano sicura, hai il privilegio di frequentare un ambiente cordiale e famigliare. Ritornarci dopo 8 anni, ha confermato che la fortuna aiuta gli audaci "Un turista per caso "
