Espingueira was an abandoned village near the northern coast of the island of Boa Vista. The village is around 4 km (2.5 mi) northeast of the village Bofarreira and 13 km (8.1 mi) east of the island capital of Sal Rei.
The village has been refurbished and is now an eco-lodge, where electricity is provided by a photovoltaic power plant (10 kW).
