About

It is one of the beaches of Sao Pedro settlement, just 2.5 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, among the mountains, surrounded by the cliffs.

This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers etc. It is partially crowded during the high season.

1 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Praia de Sao Pedro, which has a rating of 7.7.

Flamengo beach (Cape Verde) is located outside the Sao Pedro settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Sao Vicente island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Flamengo beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

This beach is secluded and peaceful, away from the crowds. The unique black sand is visually striking and you may even spot a crab or two during your visit.

I visited a beach that required a bit of effort to reach, but it was worth it. The access road was a bit rough, but my car managed it just fine. The best part is that this beach is open to the public for free!
