Wind and kitesurf conditions rated among the best in the Atlantic, a music tradition (morna) that turned homesickness into its own genre, and a volcanic desert landscape that feels closer to the moon than to the rest of Africa.
The best time to visit Cape Verde is Nov–Jun, when typical daytime highs reach about 26°C (78°F).
