CENTRAL LOCATION – Perfectly poised off the west coast of Africa, Cabo Verde is easily accessible from the U.S, Carribean, South-America, Europe and mainland Africa. And to think that you can fly directly to Africa in 2-7 hours? It does not get more convenient than that!
LANDSCAPE – The vast biodiversity in Cabo Verde includes everything from mountain ranges to verdant oases, miles and miles of rocky terrain and sand dunes, long beaches of endless white sand and beaches of black volcanic sand. The range is dramatic and breathtaking.
BALANCE OF OLD WORLD VALUES AND NEW WORLD AMENITIES – In Cabo Verde, people still prioritize quality time with family and friends. We stop in the streets to properly greet acquaintances and we check on neighbors. At the same time, we value our modern and well equipped infrastructure that offers access to seamless electricity and water, high speed internet and smooth paved roads.
SENSATIONAL WEATHER – Cabo Verde is blessed with virtually year-round sunshine, mild temperatures and ocean breezes. It experiences minimal rainfall, even in the so-called rainy season of mid-August to mid-October.
MORABEZA – Caboverdeanos are so gracious that our language of Kriolu actually includes its own original word, morabeza, for the warmth and hospitality we extend.
HISTORY – This country was the first European settlement in the tropics and was a major port in the trans Atlantic slave trade.
CULTURE – The sights…The beauty of such stunning people against the backdrop of a virtually untouched landscape provides endless inspiration. The sounds… For such a tiny country, Cabo Verde is bursting with the melodies of varied music genres: Coladeira, Funana, Zouk, Mazurka, Cola-san Jon, of course, morna that was brought to the world’s attention by late “Barefoot Diva” Cesaria Evora. The physical movements… Partner dancing to this sensual music, often during live performances, takes the experience to another level! The tastes…. The cuisine of Cabo Verde is a heady blend of Portuguese and West African traditional cooking methods and savory seasoning that delights the taste buds. The scents… Taking in the smell of the salty ocean, fresh soil and clean air instantly relaxes and soothes. These are the invaluable intangibles that delight all the senses and add immeasurably to your lifestyle.
