Discover the Birdwatcher’s Paradise on Boa Vista Island!
If you’re a bird enthusiast, Boa Vista is the place to be! With over 20 native species breeding on the island and dozens of migratory species passing through from late September to late May, this is a haven for birdwatching.

- Cream-colored Courser (Cursorius cursor)
- Greater Hoopoe Lark (Alaemon alaudipes)
