Cape-verde kitesurfing holidays, with the Cape-verde experts.

Cape Verde consists of 10 Islands just off the coast of West Africa. Each island offers its unique blend of culture, topography and attractions from the Volcano on Fargo to the stunning beaches of Boa Vista. Cape Verde is an excellent destination for a kitesurfing holiday during the Northern Hemisphere winter months, as it is a hot destination with reliable winds, just a short flight from the UK and Europe. This makes it a great wind reliable location for all levels of kitesurfer between November to April. Whether it's a family kitesurf holiday, travelling with your partner, or a solo trip,we can organise tailor-made packages to suit your needs. 

Sal - this holiday destination is excellent for all levels of kitesurfers, windsurfers, wingfoilers and divers. The beach of Santa Maria has a good variety of hotels, including one of our favourites, the Morabeza Hotel. Santa Maria town offers a few nice spots to eat out and a couple of bars that get quite lively from Thursday to Sunday. There is little else on Sal Island, but it does have a good network of flights to the other islands.      

Boa Vista - this island has the most stunning beaches to be found on the Islands and is less developed than Sal in terms of tourism. Like Sal, there are some first-class windsurf, wingfoil and kitesurf facilities with an excellent range of conditions from very flat to small waves. Boa Vista has some beautiful small villages to visit as part of a day tour around the island. There is a good range of small hotels and apartments close to the town of Sal Rei.

Santiago - with a unique blend of diverse landscapes, volcanic rocks, green valleys, barren regions and beautiful beaches Santiago is aesthetically pleasing. Hiking is popular here as this is one of the few islands with a refreshing hinterland, which can be very rewarding. Ornithologists will be in their element as most of the species endemic to Cape Verde can be spotted here. A 1-2 day fly in visit to this Island from Sal or Boa Vista makes a nice addition to your holiday if you have the time.      

Sao Vicente - São Vicente is home to some of Cape Verde's greatest musicians, writers and thinkers. Generally considered the cultural hub of the island, Mindelo is proud of its rich tradition of music and art and has a vibrant nightlife with a lively buzz of music throughout the pubs, restaurants and nightclubs. If you're looking for culture and a traditional experience then São Vicente will not disappoint. As with Santiago a 1-2 day fly in visit to this Island from Sal or Boa Vista makes a nice addition to your holiday if you have the time. You can also get a ferry from here to Santo Antao, allowing a full day visit to explore here.  

Fogo - The crater on Fogo is one of the highlights of Cape Verde and has created what is a very fertile land; coffee is grown on the outside slopes, whilst the vines used to produce the famous Fogo wine are grown inside the crater. We highly recommend you try both. The scenery on Fogo is impressive: dark rocks and black sands give an impression of a lunar landscape. São Filipe, the capital of Fogo is a pretty town full of Portuguese squares, cobbled streets and sobrados, pastel houses decorated with quality woods and tiles from Portugal. The views from the promenade are of the island of Brava and a severe drop down to the black sands below. Visitors to Fogo tend to embark on a hike up the volcano with a rewarding lunch at the top in a restaurant offering magnificent views.
