More than 40 years have passed since the release of the movie version of the famous novel The Blue Lagoon by Henry De Vere Stacpoole, but everyone who saw the pristine nature of the islands and the endless waters of the ocean dreamed of being in the place of the heroine Brooke Shields and Christopher Atkins. Later, everyone returned to the beautiful wild lagoon with Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause and started to dream again of uninhabited islands and amazing adventures. Tourist planes were flying farther and farther, looking for pristine paradise. But even nowadays, there are countries where beaches could be a scene for a fascinating film. Any traveler who goes to the most quiet and peaceful of the islands of Cape Verde, Maio Island, can get on the wild sandy beach surrounded by warm waters of the Atlantic.

Covered with green forests and surrounded by white beaches, the island entices to its arms and stays in your heart forever. The small cozy towns of Maio are full of colorful houses in Portuguese style, but the atmosphere is so sleepy that they all seem like good ghosts, long abandoned and deserted. This region does not attract by parties and noisy bars, it is a place of relaxation and meditation, and its main attraction is picturesque beaches. You only need to choose the side of the world and feel like the heroes of the film. Whether you go to the Western Praia da Vila beach or the Eastern Praia Ponta Preta beach, this is just a small variety. The sands are fine and white, the waters are warm and calm, and the shores are sloping and safe. Here you can swim and dive, enjoy the sunrises and sunsets, and in the late afternoon take a couple of glasses of the stunning local Poncha drink and go on a romantic date to the shady alleys of acacia trees.
