Rent a bicycle from one of the rental shops in Santa Maria. Start from the main square (Praça São João) and head towards the beach. Follow the bike path along the beach promenade heading northeast. After about 15 minutes of cycling, you will come to Rua 15 de Agosto. Turn left and continue for about 5 minutes until you reach Avenida 5 de Julho. Turn right; the Cabo Verde Diving Aquarium will be on your right side shortly after.
