★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 227 reviews · from $65

From Santa Maria, you’ll ride 1,000 meters over Serra Negra Natural Reserve at speeds advertised above 100 km/h. Guides handle the safety briefing and harnesses, then you can fly solo or with a partner. Afterward, enjoy Cape Verdean music, dancing, snacks, and fresh drinks.

“What an experience, and what an atmosphere the guides created—wow! We honestly didn’t want to leave. A beautiful ride to the zipline, then a climb up, which was quite a hike but absolutely worth it. After the zipline, you come back down into the full Cape Verdean vibe, with dancing and laughter all around. Definitely a must-do.”
