By bus
Much like a bus service, you can catch an 'Aluguer', the most popular way of getting around. These vehicles vary from cars to pick-ups, vans to minibuses. It is common practice to negotiate the price of a journey before setting off and the only downside is you may have to wait until the vehicle has been filled before you set off.
About 10-15 minutes to Praia de Salines.
As a guide it is approximately 200-300 CVE (2-3€) to Praia de Salines though negotiate the price before you leave.
By taxi
Taxis leave from outside the arrivals terminal.
About 10-15 minutes to Praia de Salines.
As a guide, it’s approximately 500-600 CVE (5-6€) to Praia de Salines though check the price first.

Boavista is an easy island to navigate with little traffic, however please note that only a third of the island’s roads are of a good standard and many are rough tracks.
