Baía da Parda

Baía da Parda is a small bay on the eastern shore of Sal, one of the northern Cape Verde islands. Its shallow waters meet a dry, rocky coast south of Pedra de Lume. Reefs and rocks shelter marine life beneath the Atlantic surface, and young lemon sharks gather in the bay. Beyond the shore lies the open ocean, while inland Sal's low, arid ground contrasts with the green valleys of some of its island neighbours.
