Cabo-verdians are famous for their friendliness and hospitality. The climate is perpetually sunny and welcoming. Cool breezes provide for a natural air conditioner environment and great care has been taken to preserve and enhance the natural beauty...

At the crossroad of the three continents that border the Atlantic, there is an obligatory stop in the middle of the ocean, the archipelago of Cabo Verde Islands. Located 450 km off the coast of Senegal, it is composed of 10 islands and 8 islets. Of volcanic origin and positioned between parallels 15 and 17 of the North latitude, Cabo Verde is made up of two distinctly different types of islands. Its six inhabited islands, located more to the West, are characterized by their mountainous landscapes, whereas the remaining three are distinguished by their long sandy beaches.

The islands are divided into two groups named according to the trade winds that reach them from the African Continent: windward and leeward. The first group consists of the islands of Santo Antão, S.Vicente, Santa Luzia (unhabited), S.Nicolau, Sal, Boavista, and the second, more to the South, comprises the islands of Maio, Santiago, Fogo and Brava.

The sun spreads its warmth the whole year round, soothed by the fresh sea breeze. The climate is tropical and dry. The average temperature is approximately 25°C and changes do not exceed 10°C. With vast beaches that allow for all types of water sports, impressive mountains, high quality fish, various types of delicious seafood and the melodious beauty of its music, all distinguish Cabo Verde as an exciting tourist destination.
