Okay, so this is a review of the whole island of Sao Nicolau, not just the city Tarrafal: The nature was beautiful! Green valleys, high mountains and hidden beaches. The Monte Gordo National Park is a must see - we could have spent several days walking the different trails there, looking at the scenery and the endemic plants, birds and lizards. The view from the top of the mountain was spectacular, and it was a lovely feeling walking up through the clouds. The trail from Ribeira Brava to Cachaco was beautiful too. We recommend walking it in that direction - it's a fairly steep climb but your knees will thank you for not having to walk down instead of up! There are hardly any tourists on the island, so if you want lots of restaurants and an exciting nightlife this isn't the place to go. And the beaches aren't like on Sal (the only other Capeverdean island we've been to) but rather small and not really looked after (though there are hidden treasures when it comes to beaches - you shouldn't miss Baixa Rocha south of Tarrafal, all white sand and black rocks and turqoise water ...). Also it can be dangerous to go for a swim in some places - the waves are high because of the wind and there can be currents - so make sure you don't swim alone!
Tarrafal
The highlight of Edificio Magico is really the people. First of all Edu (the driver that works with the hotel) was just an incredible man and took me on an island tour one day. Definitely plan an itinerary with Edu if you want the most out of your time on Sao Nicolau. Uri was also phenomenally helpful and even showed me around the non-tourist life one night. I would recommend anyone to stay there.
