Things to do in Cape Verde

Cape Verde, officially the Republic of Cabo Verde, is an archipelago composed of 10 volcanic islands located in the Atlantic Ocean, facing the Northwest side of the African continent. Uninhabited until 1456, that is when the Genoese and Portugues discovered these magnificent islands. The islands then became independent in 1975.
Since then Cape Verde definitely grew as a tourist destination with its wonderful beaches and resorts. The islands also offer a variety of activities that will grant tourists not to be bored. Visitors can decide whether to venture in excursions like quad bike riding and catamaran experiences or to engage in water sports trying windsurfing, kitesurfing or diving into the mesmerizing ocean. If you prefer more relaxing activities you can always enjoy walking tours, fishing or rescuing the Loggerheads turtles.
