Find Your Island Paradise Cape Verde is a stunning collection of 10 unique islands situated off the northwest coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean. Sal is the main island (and home to the main international airport), but all 9 inhabited Cape Verdes are worth a look! Here is what you can look forward to:
Cape Verde Beaches Think white sand and turquoise waters! Cape Verde is home to some of the most stunning beaches in the Atlantic: Santa Maria Beach on Sal is perfect for catching the rays, while Boa Vista offers incredible kite-surfing opportunities. If you fancy going a little off the beaten track, the remote beaches on Maio and São Nicolau promise tranquillity and seclusion.
Fab Variety of Activities Those who enjoy adventure on their holidays will find plenty to do on Cape Verde: Surfing is world-class on the islands of Sal and São Vicente, while the crystal-clear waters offer excellent snorkelling and diving. Hiking enthusiasts will enjoy the multitude of trails through fascinating landscapes, from volcanic peaks to lush valleys.
350 Days of Sunshine a Year! With a warm, dry climate year-round, Cape Verde enjoys nearly continuous sunshine. Temperatures average between 22-30 °C, making it an ideal escape from cooler climates, during the winter. The gentle trade winds offer nice breezes even during the hottest months, creating perfect beach weather.
Fabulous Hikes For unforgettable walks, trek the rugged terrain of the island of Santo Antão, renowned for its dramatic mountains, valleys, and picturesque, remote villages. A little effort is so worthwhile here, as you'll be rewarded with, turn by turn, with breathtaking panoramas and unspoiled natural beauty.
Food & Drink Cape Verdes cuisine is a fusion of African, Portuguese, and Brazilian - tasty, oh so very tasty! Try the national dish, cachupa, a hearty stew, or fresh seafood at local restaurants. Relax on an evening with a little snifter of the island's distinctive grogue rum or a bottle of Cape Verde's excellent local wine.
