    YouTube Video VVVud0dBczM3Z3ZCRC0taEMtNFAxMmlBLkhZYXZMaEw2aS04 In this video, you can get a first impression of what to expect whilst scuba diving in Cape Verde. The volcanic origins have created a wonderful underwater landscape that attracts a lot of marine life from the Atlantic Ocean. I have published a longer YouTube video of scuba diving in Sal Island in Cape Verde. Here is the link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8y9TEQLVAYDon't forget to subscribe to this channel. I'm a former scuba diving instructor sharing scuba shorts from scuba diving around the world. I also share normal worldwide travel content from being on the road as a female solo traveler for almost two decades. You can read more about me on my dive travel blog:

https://www.splashpacker.com/travel-information/cape-verde/sal-island-day-tour-in-cape-verde-sustainable-travel-things-to-do-in-santa-maria/The fish and marine life from the Atlantic Ocean that you can see in this video include big schools of fish, porcupine fish, a lobster, a shark, a moray eel, a nudibranch, and did I forget something? You also get an impression of the corals and the underwater landscape that you can see whilst scuba diving in Cape Verde.On the Island of Sal in Cape Verde, and more specifically, during my stay in Santa Maria, I went scuba diving with Eco Dive School. More information about this dive center in Cape Verde can be found in the longer video. I'm also working on a blog post with travel information for Sal Island in Cape Verde, where I dedicate a couple of paragraphs to this dive center and diving in Cape Verde.And what is your favorite ocean creature?
