The Cape Verde Islands are an ideal area for open sea sailors. You can expect Caribbean water and sun conditions the whole year. Because of the inviolate nature and the interesting sea fauna you can enjoy sailing in it’s original way.

 

Vast sandy beaches are especially on the plane east-islands as well as on Sao Vicente . Behind the beaches are wide dune areas and salt meadows. There you can find different types of plants and about 90 of them are nowhere on the earth too.
