Maio's Untouched Coastline, Maio
About Maio's Untouched Coastline, Maio
Maio’s untouched coastline is what makes the island feel different from the start. Long stretches of sand, very little development, and a slower pace make it feel quieter and less shaped around tourism than some of Cabo Verde’s more visited islands. It works well if you want beach time that feels simple, scenic, and not overly busy.
When to visit
November to July is the best overall period for dry, sunny beach weather, while August to October is warmer, more humid, and rainier.
Most popular: December - March
