Cape Verde Beaches

Cape Verde’s amazing bounty-like beaches instantly grab your attention.

Miles of utterly breathtaking porcelain-white sands stretch as far as the eye can see, seductively sliding into glass-like seas.

On the Island of Sal, Santa Maria’s unspoilt seashore curves around the coastline for over 7km, so whether you want to stay close to the action near the water sports centres and beach bars or crave the solitude of the sand dunes, you can always find your own piece of paradise.

Stroll along the sands and spot the island of Boa Vista on the horizon. And the beaches here are just as jaw-dropping. Dazzlingly white and stretching as far as the eye can see, with relatively little tourism, they’re almost all yours.

Every island offers something different and is waiting to be explored.

However you choose to unwind here - it's most definitely a desert island dream.
