    We visited the island of Sal in late November 2021 and stayed at Riu Cabo Verde and loved it. It’s true “no stress” on the island. We loved the country and the people are very welcoming. Can’t wait to visit again.

    Well, I called Cabo Verde during my Atlantic passage from Gibraltar to Caribbean, very nice and interesting place. In my opinion, its number “1” quality is its musical riches. You hear a Brasilian sound with Cuban flavor. Great musician and good performance…

    • @guleiro

      That's because Cabo Verde and Brasil were former Portuguese colonies and they share very similar cultural features.

      @@guleiro dear guleiro, that is what I wanted to point out, the contraversy was the music was not like what you hear in Brasil, but more inclined to Cuban beats. I found that very interesting, because there must have been some culturally cross breeding at least on the musical front..

      Yes, you are right.
      In a way on the musical sense it has been a back a fourth story in the last 400 years.
      The seeds of Brasil's musical heritage are rithms come from Africa (mostly from Angola) and Portugal.
      Cabo Verde was the crossroad that connected Europe, Africa and the Americas as every ship that wanted to reach those destinations had to stop there.
      More recently, with the advent of the radio in the early XXth century, brasilian music itself started to influence the music in Portugal and in the former portuguese colonies.
      So it has been a long history of mutual influences. The seeds came from Africa and Portugal initially but over time Brazil itself influenced others in the portuguese speaking world.
      The Cuban heritage is similar but their European roots come from Spain.
      Slightly different rithms from the portuguese.
      Indeed a very interesting history.

    Cape Verde can be expensive to visit when traveling to the famous islands Sal and Boa Vista. Average prices for an all-inclusive holiday are $1000 for 10 days per person, often including flights when leaving from the UK or Europe, and depending on the season. The lesser-known islands are often cheaper to visit.

    Although we haven't been for 2 years because of Covid, our previous 5 trips have been superb. We have Island friends on Sal and plan to go back this year. It's safe, clean and super friendly with a guaranteed climate although i cannot stress enough as inviting as the sea looks, it can be a very dangerous place. The rip currents are as bad as anywhere i've been around the World and you'll do very well to take heed of the beach flag colours, red being you don't go in at all.
    The pay the multilingual island hotel workers receive is very poor so we usually give a 2 Euro tip at breakfast and 3 at dinner. My wife takes underwear and sanitary products that she gives to the cleaners and workers, we take books for kindergartens and stationary for the teachers.
    We love Sal and its people, it really is the place to chill. Muito amor, from South London, England.

      It's hot, but it catches the Sahara winds and it gets quite dry and the air heavier. The sea can also sometimes be rougher at this time. Best time may be from late March to mid November. December is great for New Year's Eve. Dm for more info

      The ocean water gets a bit cool. Most Capeveardeans won't go in the water in that time of the year. Tourists stay away from the water. You can go and sit on the beach and catch the Sun, however.

    Are you sure about that second fact?? I don’t remember us having so many goats. I mean, I’m not saying there are no goats in CV, because there are quite a few, but “one of the highest number of goats in the world” is a bit of an overstatement.

      we do have some greenhouse farming, I'm from Sal island (the driest one on my books) and even there there is some investment in that direction, I don't know if it would ever be possible to make it sustainable enough to make us self sufficient, i'm not an agriculture expert :|... water desalination... I think other islands have some natural water sources but it's not enough for the entire population, therefore water desalination technology isn't a foreign concept to us or something that needs to be introduced to us, it's actually our main source of "fresh" water. I hope this helps but, as I said, I don't know much about agriculture.
