Why you’ll love this…
  • Exciting activity
  • Scenic walk to the base
  • Zipline at speeds of up to 100km/hr
What to expect

The freedom and exhilaration of flying top-speed through the air is an experience that's hard to beat. And you can do it in the tropical setting of Sal island, with hilltop views to boot.

You'll be picked up from your hotel and taken to the base where your arrival will be welcomed with a refreshing drink to get you started. There will be a quick safety briefing and introduction to ziplining, then once you're ready, you'll drive up to the hilltop, followed by a short, but no less spectacular, walk.

There are two platforms to launch yourself from, with the highest point at a towering 103m. You'll reach speeds of up to a 100km per hour as you hurtle down the steel ropes, which extend over 1000m. And if you can open your eyes for just a second, you'll catch flashes of Sal's idyllic landscape before you reach the end of the line.

    Wasnt as fast as we thought it would be. No drink as mentioned in the description. A lot of waiting around for people to get harnesses on especially if you are part of a large group at the top. One of our group decided last minute not to do it due to fear of heights. No refund offered

    Picked up on time. Taken to the zip line. Staff there were very friendly and made the whole experience fun. Zip line isn’t that quick. But it’s very enjoyable seeing the island from a different perspective. It’s a walk up to the zip line. which was a little strenuous. But other than that it was great fun.

    The staff were fantastic, helpful and friendly, no stress as they say, the only thing I would say and have seen on a lot of reviews is that we did not have any of the dancing etc they advertise as being provided after the zipline has been completed, so maybe you need to drop this from the advert as clearly it is a hit and miss event.

When we've stopped, you can also head out on to the nets, where you'll be able to float above the sparkling water and dry off in the sun. Maria adds, ‘Monte Leão sits at the northern end of the Murdeira Bay. The whole bay area is a marine nature reserve because of the important populations of sea turtles and seabirds.'
