WHY VISIT CAPE VERDE
Still an untouched and authentic destination, Cape Verde is an archipelago divided into two main groups of islands of which nine are inhabited. Apart from the kindness of its inhabitants, the charm of the countryside and the multicultural atmosphere will all seduce you.
The Capital, Praia, is on the island of São Tiago. It is perfect for taking a gentle stroll around the center or you may wish to visit some of the lovely beaches nearby. On the island of São Vicente, the town of Mindelo offers a lively atmosphere with its nightclubs and restaurants often inside typical colonial-style houses.
If you are a fan of the great outdoors, then the wooded island of Santo Antão is the place for you. Its many paths through magnificent landscapes of mountains with luxuriant vegetation are definitely worth a visit.
The small island of Brava is a charming stopping-off point. Its town of Nova Sintra, considered the most beautiful town in the archipelago, is an absolute jewel with its houses and beautiful flowered gardens but also worth a visit is the small and peaceful fishing port of Furna, the ride there alone is worth the trip with its unforgettable landscapes.
Fogo, the island of the great volcano, is seen as almost an obligatory visit to make. At a height of 2,892 meters, the volcano dominates the landscape. Visit the island of São Filipe with the Aguadinha gazebo, and the Ermida de Nossa Senhora, a small and isolated chapel situated just above the sea.
