BOAVISTA
is a place
of sharp contrasts
where the ocean gives way
to dunes, oases and
vast stretches red heart
that anticipate the most
African part of the island.
To get to Sal Rei,
the administrative seat
of the island, follow the rua pitoresca,
a cobble stone road,
flowing through an oasis,
once only tread by donkeys
and horses. Fifty-five km
of beach, a perfect circle
around the island with long
stretches of white sand.
A perfect starting point for
scuba divers or surfers
there are also uncontaminated
coves for watching turtles and whales
far from the metallic
In Boavista
there is no noise
only barulho, a mix
of music and voices.
Voices of women selling
fruit in the market, children
playing in the street and
older people chatting
under the almond trees.
In the evenings, just music.
The notes of the morna,
started in Boavista to sing
of sodade, nostalgia of
the Cape Verdeans who
emigrated for work, waft through the air.
The batuke, the coladera
and the passada heat
up the island nights mixing
an African rhythm with
that of Brazil.
This is Boa Vista, far from
mass turism.
