Climb aboard the truck for a tour of Boa Vista Island. The first stop is the giant sand dunes at Praia Des Chaves beach. See if you can stay upright as you slither down one on a sand board. You’ll get to cool off afterwards in Rabil, the former capital and second largest town on the island. Next, the truck ventures off road, around the foot of the east coast mountains and through the Fonte Vicente oasis. This will be the chance to see baobabs – these bizarre-looking trees, which are only found in the driest areas, have unusually thick trunks and pod-shaped fruit. Finally, you’ll whizz past the salt lakes of the Curral Velho region, and a turtle conservation area, before making a pit-stop for lunch.
