Cape Verde an exciting holiday and property destination
Cape Verde Islands - an exciting holiday and property destination
The Cape Verde Holiday - empty beaches, warm sea, cool wind
Midway between Portugal and Brazil, the 10-island Cape Verde archipelago is a paradise for sailing, wind, board or kite surfing , fishing and diving. Every day is like a perfect English summer day with temperature range from 24C to 29C through the seasons. In winter it is 10 degrees warmer than southern Spain. The sea is almost as warm, ranging from 22C to 27C. It scarcely ever rains and there are no hurricanes, although some start in the Cape Verdes. So unlike Florida or the Caribbean where you sit inside, shivering in the air conditioning, you can nearly always dine outside in the Cape Verdes.
Discovered by the Portuguese in 1460, the population today is just 400,000. The Cape Verdes share a Catholic, Portuguese-speaking, friendly and welcoming culture and cuisine with Portugal and Brazil. Many Cape Verdes people have relatives in the USA, so English is also spoken. The first British visitors were the Royal Navy. Both Captain Cook of the Endeavour and Lieutenant Bligh of the Bounty called to re-victual in the Cape Verdes on their way to the South Seas. The British anti-slavery flotilla was based at Boa Vista. Later Sao Vicente in the Cape Verdes became a coaling station and telegraph post on the route to Cape Town. Water is expensive and only 10% of land is farmed but desalination has transformed existence on the main islands of Sal, Santiago and Boa Vista and will come elsewhere.
