Permission Granted To Sail Captain I The Pandemic in Cabo Verde | Winded Voyage 4 | Episode 83
We got permission to sail! It was an administrative adventure with Maritime Police and Port Authority. First because of the pandemic and restrictions being slowly lifted and second Cape Verdean nationals need special permission from the port authority to travel on a vessel with a foreign flag. But in the end we got permission to sail captain. It was the first time for a group of friends to discover their island by sea. I was accompanied by Peixe, Jodie, Lily, Marizia, Fanie and Wendy. We went to one of our favourite anchorages on the island of Sao Vicente. We swam, ate, drank and danced. The next day Peixe took us to a seclude black sand beach. Then we made our way back to our anchorage for the night, rested so we could continue our adventures at another beach with natural pools.
