Holidays in Rui Vaz

Can't sleep? Tossing and turning all night? Could be that intrepid spirit of yours! So what are you waiting for? Get up, dig out your passport and book a trip to Rui Vaz!

The well-known city of Praia is within driving distance of Rui Vaz. It's found around 14 kilometres to the southeast.

No soccer lover will want to miss out on a visit to Estadio da Varzea, located 17 kilometres away in Praia. Take a look at the event schedule to find out when they're playing. If you miss them, why not catch the venue's other home team, the CD Trovadores?

Do you like the sound of the Tabanka Museum and Assomada? These attractions are in Sao Lourenco dos Orgaos, located just 3 kilometres north of Rui Vaz. Or maybe market and Espinho Branco appeal more to you? To visit them, go to Assomada, 9 kilometres to the northwest.

Getting outdoors and exploring the surrounding landscape doesn't get any better when your options include adventurous activities like mountain climbing and hiking.

A cloudless day is a perfect opportunity to venture into the great outdoors and spend a lazy afternoon shore fishing. If the beautiful weather persists, you could also enjoy some sunbathing.

Are you interested in spending time by the water? Add a splash of excitement to your holiday with a bit of swimming or snorkeling.

Searching for an outdoor activity that will suit everyone? The surrounding area offers some wonderful open-air markets.

There's no better way to experience a destination than to literally sink your teeth into it! You're invited to discover Cape Verde by tasting some of its finest food and drink.

Cabbage and tuna are just two popular ingredients found in many dishes here. If you don't have a thing for them already, you will by the end of your journey!

Of course, you can't head home from Rui Vaz without trying a plate of catchupa (slow boiled stew) or carne gizado (stewed meat and vegetables). Popular with locals and considered regional specialties, they are a must-try experience for anyone with an interest in food.

Calories don't count when you're on holiday, right? So it's a great excuse to treat yourself to papauya candy (sweet), a favourite dessert.

Ponche (cocktail with brogue, lime and molasses) is certainly worth a try. Mixed or on the rocks? Your bartender will have some taste bud-tickling suggestions.

Blend in with your hosts by memorising a few expressions in Portuguese. 'Viva!' translates to 'cheers/good health!'. Another one to commit to memory is 'Bem, obrigado. E você?', which means 'fine thanks, and you?'.

You can expect an air of fever and excitement around the 5th of July. The locals will be getting ready for Independence Day, a day of nation-wide celebrations.

You may be poor in Cape Verdean escudos by the end of your trip, but you'll be rich in incredible experiences. "Até logo" Rui Vaz!

Situated 17 kilometres to the southeast is Praia International Airport (RAI), the closest terminal. Be sure you give yourself plenty of time to find it.
