Top Tourist Attractions in Cabo Verde

Sao Nicolau
Still relatively unknown to tourists, the island of Sao Nicolau is often overshadowed by its neighbour, Sao Vicente. But this has its advantages as the island has preserved its authentic character and a natural environment. Agriculture is the predominant industry on the island. While pretty arid on the east side, much of the island is still dedicated to terraced crops: sugar cane, cassava, fruits, vegetables … the island has very fertile soil. 

Brava
Hidden just behind Fogo is Brava, the smallest and most southern island in the archipelago. Nicknamed “the island of flowers” by the locals, the island remains seldom visited by tourists, because it is very isolated. However, it offers beautiful walking opportunities. Accessible only by boat from Fogo, this small piece of land is home to a warm and welcoming population and enchanting landscapes that can be discovered during the various walks.

Sao Vicente
As the little sister island to Santo Antao, Sao Vicente, easily accessible thanks to its airport, is also renowned for its hiking trails, but also for the charm of its typical villages. A must-see, Mindelo, the cultural capital of the island, vibrates constantly to the rhythm of Portuguese, African and Brazilian rhythms.

Santo Antão
As the second largest island in the Cape Verde archipelago, Santo Antao is often included in adventure and trekking tours due to its variety of hiking trails winding between valleys and mountains. Volcanic in origin, the island offers visitors a multitude of landscapes: from arid and desert scenery in the south to green valleys, favourable to agriculture, in the north.

Santiago
As the largest island of the Cape Verde archipelago, Santiago is also the most populated with a quarter of the Cape Verdean population settled in the capital, Praia. While the city does not host major tourist attractions, it is nevertheless worth a visit if only to enjoy the atmosphere and traditional music, especially in the evenings, where several bars and nightclubs will delight the night owls amongst you.

Sal
Together with the island of Boa Vista, Sal is famous for its long sandy beaches, the most beautiful of which is the 8km-long Santa Maria beach. The island is an ideal destination for lovers of relaxation and water sports, including kitesurfing, and has benefitted from the most tourism development. Besides its beautiful beaches, some excursions are not to be missed: first of all, there’s the Pedra de Lume salt mines, located in the hollow of a now extinct volcano, and also the azur-blue natural pools of Buracona.

Fogo
The main attraction of the island is, of course, its majestic volcano, Mount Fogo, located in the centre of the island, and from which it takes its name. Its name signifies “fire”. While the last eruption dates back to 1995, the volcano is still active. The bravest amongst you may attempt to climb this impressive conical mountain covered with ash, which offers breathtaking lunar landscapes on the caldera, before finally reaching the summit which rises to over 2800 metres above sea level.

Boa Vista
Of all the Cape Verde islands, Boa Vista, the island dubbed “dune island”, is home to many treasures. With the development of tourism, Boa Vista is attracting more and more visitors in search of sun and paradise beaches. Indeed, the island has the most beautiful beaches in the archipelago, such as the unmissable Santa Monica beach, a huge strip of white sand where lovers of lazy days will be in their element.
