Cabo Verde

Fifteen islands in the Atlantic

On the beach of Tarrafal at Santiago
Fifteen islands in the ocean......
Every island with an own character.

Ilha do Sal is a rather flat island, like desert with not much green.
For more information see my Ilha do Sal page.

Santo Antão with mountains and green valleys has a very beautifull
scenery.
For more information see my Ilha do Santo Antao page

Santiago is the most african island.
There are mountains, fairytale beaches, lifely markets.
For more information see my Santiago page.

And everywhere the Capverdians are very friendly with a great hospitality.
Santa Maria

Ilha do Sal

In Santa Maria are the most big hotels near the beach and in town there are some smaller ones.

Santa Maria is a relaxed town.
It's nice to walk around, sit on a terrace, in a bar, restaurant or at the central Plaza and meet people.
Mindelo

Mindelo

Mindelo at São Vicente was in the past an important international port.

Mindelo is the home town of the capeverdian singer Cesaria Evora.

Often there is life music in the bars.

 Some of those ferries don't look very sea-worthy! Thanks for sharing!

 We've finally booked to visit Cape Verde after meaning to go for so long. Really looking forward to it.

 Island hopping sounds like a great idea and that's what I would like to do if I visit one day. Cape Verde looks like an interesting place to visit.
