Despite its remoteness and lack of natural resources, Cape Verde is a unique collection of 10 islands about 500km/ 310mi off Africa’s west coast in the Atlantic Ocean, featuring impressive white sandy beaches, tousled jungles, vast volcanic landscapes and a vibrant blend of cultures with influences from Portugal, Africa and Brazil.
While scuba diving is possible year-round in Sal Island, Boa Vista’s is limited to April throughout November due to challenging weather conditions and rough sea. This is when the water appears to be crystal-clear except for those areas with heavy plankton, providing perfect conditions for whales.
Boa Vista and Sal Island are home to a unique diversity of marine life. Every dive promises adventure.
