This is a safe and quiet residential area surrounded by the ocean. In less than 5 minutes walking you can reach everything: the beach, the ocean pools and the town centre. Tarrafal is a small and picturesque fishing village. It is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the sun, as well as a good base from where you can explore the whole island! Walking and biking are the smartest ways to get around in Tarrafal. Public transportation, Rent-a-car, and private taxis are the most common options to explore the island.
