What to see in Cape Verde

Cape Verde is an archipelago made up of ten volcanic islands and is quickly becoming a top tourist spot. Each island has its own unique charm and tells a part of the country’s rich history, where different cultures meet. Famous for its vibrant music scene, serene beaches, and wild landscapes, Cape Verde is the perfect destination for those seeking a relaxing vacation and for those who love to explore new places and fully immerse themselves in the local culture. Grab your hat, sunscreen, and comfy shoes – and get ready for a vacation that’s a bit out of the ordinary in this amazing destination.

The 6 best things to do in Cape Verde 1. Relax on the Island of Sal

Sal is one of the most popular spots in Cape Verde, and it’s easy to see why. With miles of sandy beaches, clear blue sea, and sunshine all year round, it’s the ideal destination for sunbathing and total relaxation. Don’t miss a visit to the salt mines of Pedra de Lume, the fishing village of Santa Maria, and Shark Bay, where you can see lemon sharks up close in their natural habitat.

2. Explore the landscapes of Boa Vista

Another favorite among holidaymakers, Boa Vista offers a stunning variety of landscapes. From Atalanta Beach with its famous shipwreck to the white sand dunes of the Viana Desert, the island is perfect for those with a sense of adventure. There are many excursion options available, from 4x4 tours to catamaran cruises, and even scenic horseback rides on the beach. There’s no way you’ll get bored on Boa Vista.

3. Discover the culture of Mindelo

São Vicente island isn’t overrun by tourists, which makes it a great place to get a glimpse of local culture. Mindelo, the capital, is considered the country's cultural heart and is famous for its lively Carnival. It’s also the birthplace of the legendary singer Cesária Évora. The charming historic center has pastel-coloured houses, the most important port in the archipelago, and several attractions to visit. Be sure to check out the Belem Tower, the old presidential palace, and the many churches.

4. Visit the unspoiled Santo Antão

Santo Antão is green and mountainous, a very different island from its neighbours, making it a paradise for trekking and outdoor activities. Some must-see spots include the lush Ribeira do Paúl valley, one of the country’s most beautiful landscapes, and the fairy-tale village of Fontainhas, perched on the mountainside. It’s also worth visiting a distillery to taste grogue – a local spirit made from sugar cane, and hiking in the mountains of Ribeira Grande.

5. Go snorkelling

Exploring underwater in Cape Verde is absolutely worth it thanks to the diverse and colorful marine life around the archipelago. Dive in or snorkel to see what lies beneath the surface – think vibrant coral reefs, various species of sea turtles, 20 different types of cetaceans, and over 60 kinds of sharks and rays. Sal and Boa Vista are top spots for snorkelling, but if you’d rather stay dry, hop on a glass-bottom boat tour to take in all the underwater wonders without getting wet.

6. Trek on Fogo

Fogo Island is steeped in Cape Verdean culture, from its streets to its bars and local hangouts. The island’s star attraction is its active volcano, which gives Fogo its unique shape. It’s perfect for trekking and exploring wild landscapes. The must-do hike is the climb to the volcano’s peak, reaching 2,829 meters. For a safe experience, our advice is to hire a local guide.

Get ready to visit Cape Verde

What's the best time to visit Cape Verde?

Cape Verde basks in sunshine all year round, so no matter when you plan your trip, you’ll enjoy ideal conditions for the country’s beautiful beaches. For the best weather with minimal temperature swings between day and night, consider visiting between May and July. If you’re sensitive to the heat, it’s wise to avoid the hot and less breezy months from August to October.

How safe is Cape Verde?

This African island nation is generally very safe. The locals are friendly and welcoming, viewing tourism as a vital resource for their country. Crime rates are historically low, but theft can happen, so it’s important not to leave valuables unattended. Always check the weather before venturing out to sea. From December to February, intense sandstorms can occur, especially in Boa Vista, so keep that in mind when planning your trip.

What are the most fun activities to do in Cape Verde?

Cape Verde is a paradise for outdoor activities and water sports. Snorkeling and diving are among the most enjoyable experiences, allowing you to explore the country’s vibrant marine life. Catamaran cruises along the coast offer a relaxing way to continue your adventure, perhaps with a cocktail in hand. For those looking for an adrenaline rush, off-road excursions provide a fun and adventurous way to discover the wild landscapes of these fascinating islands.
