Walking
From the main street, Avenida 5 de Julho, head towards the beach. Once you reach the beachfront, turn left and walk along the promenade. The dive center is a short walk down the beach from the main tourist area. It should take you about 15-20 minutes on foot. Enjoy the scenic views along the way.
Public Transport
Take a local taxi or a shared taxi (also known as 'aluguer') from anywhere in Santa Maria. Look for a taxi stand, or ask your hotel to call one for you. The ride should cost you around 3-5 euros and take about 10 minutes. Inform the driver you want to go to Cabo Verde Diving Aquarium, which is known to locals. They will drop you off near the dive center.
Taxi
Taxis are readily available in Santa Maria. A short taxi ride from the town center to Cabo Verde Diving Aquarium typically costs around €2 during the day, with a slight increase in the evenings. Ensure the driver is aware of your destination; most are familiar with the dive center.
