Honest and inormative brochureWere passionate believers in portraying a destination
in the most honest way possible, which is why this
brochure has been put together by those who know and
respect the Cape Verde islands and everything they stand
or. The archipelago is a genuinely breathtaking place,
with its diverse allure rom sandy beaches and warm seas
through dramatic island interiors with their precipitous
rice terraces to bustling cultural centres such as Praia
and Mindelo. Tourism here is still relatively new, and or
that reason there is inormation that every holidaymaker
should be aware o beore making a decision as to
whether Cape Verde is right or them some o which
may not be mentioned by other tour operators.
In some towns there is development work and the
landscapes on some islands are barren to the point
o desolation! You may also nd the riendly, cajoling
nature o some o the street sellers takes some time to
get used to, but in our experience a smile and rm n
goes a long way. That said, we do believe that i gues
are well prepared or what to expect then they are
more likely to enjoy their holiday.

A Personal Experience
25YEARS
EXPERIENCEWES AFRICA
For anyone looking for guaranteedtropical sunshine, miles of unspoiled
white-sand beaches and a low-key, laid-back family
experience, Cape Verde is a fantastic option; like
discovering the missing link between the Canaries and
the Caribbean... No stress, we were told several times,
is the Cape Verde motto, and the package offered by
our hotel delivered on that promise. Wed never been on
an all-inclusive family holiday before, but after a week,
we were converts... In Cape Verde, we got a proper,relaxing break, with all the convenience and ease of a
package holiday, but without any of the crowds.

What to expectHard to beat as an all round holiday destinationThe Cape Verde islands are a crescent shaped archipelago
500km west of Senegal in the Atlantic Ocean. They enjoy
their own diverse culture, strong sense of history and
identity that has been widely influenced by Africa, Portugal
and Brazil, yet remains unique to Cape Verde.
This diversity is only multiplied by the act that each individual island is also
so dierent rom its neighbours dierent in people and history, dierent in
landscape, dierent in levels o development and even in dialect. It all adds
up to an incredibly alive destination, raw and emerging or sure, but with
tropical climate and enough beauty and beguiling charm or even the mo
jaded o travellers.
The short fights (around 6 hours), the small time dierence and the rien
people all add to the appeal not to mention that the islands are still low
key enough to eel like a bit o a discovery.
The ten islands all oer something dierent, and whilst its true that most
holidaymakers come to Cape Verde to simply relax in the sunshine it doe

pay to explore, as theres so much variety on oer. Youll nd excellent
hotels and beaches; sun and sur on Sal and Boa Vista; an active volcano on
Fogo where they produce their own wine o notable quality; the genuinely
breathtaking interior o Santo Anto with its rice terraces clinging to crags
and precipices, the history o Santiago and the throb o music in the cultural
centre o Mindelo on So Vicente. Something or everyone!
Flying is the most practical way o travelling rom island to island however it
should be noted that TACV (Cabo Verde Airlines), who provide the islands
internal fights, can and do change schedules and fights are sometimes
delayed, cancelled or even depart early, though this has improved a good
deal in recent years. For this reason we may recommend an overnight stay
on Sal or Boa Vista or one night prior to, or ollowing an international fight.
The smaller islands are more dicult to visit due to inrequent fights but our
team will be happy to advise what itineraries are possible. There is a regular
erry service that operates between So Vicente and Santo Anto. For more
inormation on the smaller islands such as So Nicolau, Brava, Maio and
Santa Luzia please visit our website CapeVerde.co.uk.
With its mixture o sun, excellent beaches and geographical, cultural and
historical interest, the Cape Verde islands are hard to beat as an all round
holiday destination.
Tourism - the actsIt is vital to remember that tourism is still very much in its inancy in Cape
Verde and health and saety as well as service levels in hotels and restaurants
do not always compare avourably to hotels in more established destinations.
There is poverty and you may encounter locals trying to sell you paintings
and handicrats. Despite being o-putting at times, the sellers are quite
harmless and are very ew and ar between. There is ongoing development
on the islands, which can range rom single villas to huge complexes and
during your visit you are likely to see and hear some building work. I there
is building work taking place either in, or next to your chosen hotel, we will
advise you i we eel it will aect your holiday.
A bit o backgroundGiven the position o the Cape Verde islands 500km rom the coast
o West Arica its not surprising that they remained uninhabited until
Portuguese traders populated them in the 15th century. The islands
became an outpost o the Portuguese empire and a stop on trading and
slaving routes across the Atlantic, including visi ts by Sir Francis Drake in the
1580s. As such the islands do have a unique culture, part West Arican, part
Portuguese with a splash o Brazilian, and the people are ercely proud o
their heritage both on a national and individual island level.
CurrencyThe currency in Cape Verde is Escudo expressed as $ or CV Esc beore
the amount which can only be obtained on the islands. There is a xed
exchange rate o $110 to 1 Euro and as Euros are also generally accepted
we recommend that you take Euros in place o Sterling. Travellers chequ
can be changed on some islands but the commission rates are high.
Visa and Mastercard are accepted, and all other cards ie. Switch and
Maestro are not. Please do not rely soley on ATM machines.

Language and cultureThe ocial language o the islands is Portuguese, which is used in anything
that is written; yet Portuguese is rarely spoken. Instead they use Creole,
their national language, and even this can dier rom island to island.
The Cape Verdeans are generally very riendly and welcoming many
people will approach just to chat and to use and practise their English.
MedicationAt the time this brochure was printed no vaccinations were required to visit
the Cape Verde islands. There is also no malaria present in Cape Verde
with the exception o the island o Santiago rom September to November.
I you are visiting Santiago during these months please check with your GP
or the latest advice.
Hotel classicationsWe have created our own rating system based upon standards available
within the islands and taking into consideration eedback rom our
customers. Our ratings are illustrated by a hibiscus fower.
A fower outline illustrates a midway grade. Our team will be happy to
discuss in more detail which hotels would best suit you.
INRODUCION
ClimateThe weather on each island can vary but year round temperatures
on all the islands are in the mid to high twenties. Sal and Boa Vista
enjoy virtually uninterrupted sunshine although it can rain irregularly
between August and October. Due to their location in the Atlantic
Ocean and some o the islands being fat, Cape Verde attracts aconstant breeze, which is heightened between November and April
- perect or watersports, though cooler in the evenings.

Restaurants and nightlieYou will nd a selection o restaurants in the main towns oering local Creo
dishes as well as international cuisine and many will have live Cape Verdean
music at least once a week. There are numerous bars and restaurants in
the likes o Santa Maria (Sal) and Mindelo (So Vicente) and these can be
throbbing with music long into the night. The smaller, quieter islands includBoa Vista do not have such a wide selection and the limited menu may we
be what they have prepared on the day. Prices vary, but expect to pay the
equivalent o between 25-30 or a three course meal with wine.
FamiliesChildren are made to eel very welcome in Cape Verde. Although most
hotels do not have specic childrens clubs or a babysit ting service there i
selection which oer play areas or daily activities or children to join. A tri
to the islands will prove extremely interesting or children due to the vibr
culture, changing landscape and the range o activities available inside and
out o the hotels. Please check in the hotel descriptions, or to discuss the
requirements or your amily urther, please call our reservations team on
0845 330 2046.
Getting around Cape VerdeTaxis are readily available in the larger towns and as a guide, a 2 to 3 mile
journey would be approximately 3. The most inexpensive way o gettin
around are the aluguers that are easily identied and drive around town
oten ull o passengers and packages. You simply shout when you want to
get o! Car hire is available but roads are poor and quite bumpy outside
main towns with little signage so we do not recommend this.
ActivitiesAlong with superb beaches and a great climate, the Cape Verde islands
provide a wealth o activities or those who enjoy a bit more than sun
seeking and meandering around whilst they are on holiday. There are a
huge number o activities on oer including diving and snorkelling, all orm
o surng, small to big game shing, turtle or whale watching, excursions
plane, boat, camel or quad bike, plus as many hikes, rambles and treks as
you can manage! O course each island does have its own niche i you a
a particular activity during your stay. To enquire about a specic activity or
excursion and to check what is best on your chosen island please call our
reservations team on 0845 330 2046.
