Monte Grande is the highest peak on Sal, rising to about 406 meters above sea level. This volcanic hill provides breathtaking panoramic views of the entire island, including the salt flats, coastline, and neighboring islands on clear days. A hiking trail leads to the summit, passing through rocky volcanic terrain and sparse vegetation. Visitors can enjoy a moderate hike, take in the sweeping vistas, and photograph the unique landscape. Its distinctive feature is the 360-degree view from the top, offering a true sense of Sal's geography and natural beauty.
