Ferries

Ferries between the Islands of Cape Verde (National ferries)

There are ferries between all the islands with the Interilhas company, which operates all routes with four ferries. However, we advise against the longer routes, such as São Vicente > Santiago, as it takes too much time.

Ferries are particularly suitable for visiting the islands that do not have a functioning airport (Santo Antão and Brava). Or for not too long journeys such as to São Nicolau.

For the islands which have a functioning airport, we recommend the option with the aircraft available on our page for Cape Verde domestic flights.
