Off the coast of West Africa, Cape Verde consists of ten volcanic islands and five islets.

Until recently Cape Verde's beauty has been kept a secret with the long beaches of endless white sand, the historical mystery of colonial style towns and the wide variety of landscapes from dramatic volcanic scenery, to lush and verdant.

Nowadays, the Cape Verde islands are opening up to holiday makers searching for a rich blend of fresh holiday experiences. Even the Cape Verde people are unique, being a cultural mix of their two nearest neighbours Senegal and Brazil, this combination is most obvious in the Cape Verdean music; a fusion of Samba and Salsa with a captivating sense of Africa.
