This São Vicente coastline holds sand from two different “worlds.”
Our guide told us this lighter sand was carried by winds from Africa over 100 years ago. It now lies alongside the dark volcanic sand native to São Vicente, creating these multi-colored shores.

On this beach are particles ejected from volcanoes and particles blown off a distant desert, two very different places, both known for being hot and dangerous!
In 2024 Saharan Dust came on the wind to Texas — and not for the first time. Has it ever come to your country? State/province?
