Frequently Asked Questions

SalDestiny is an informational platform and local directory dedicated to Sal Island (Cabo Verde). Its purpose is to help visitors and residents better understand the island and discover places, services and experiences through clear, practical and contextualised information.

Listings on SalDestiny are not commercial profiles or advertisements. Each place is presented through articles created from real public reviews and available sources, summarised to save visitors from having to read dozens of scattered opinions.
