Area Description

The Beaches: There is private access to a sandy beach. The steps to this beach are on the other side of the pool that can be seen from the bedroom window, about fifty meters from the villa. On the other side of the local beach is the town of Vila Do Maio. A short walk down through the town brings you out on the main street over looking the long white sandy main beach.

Description of the Cape Verde Islands: The Cape Verde Islands are in the Atlantic Ocean, 620km (385miles) west of West Africa's coast at Senegal. There are 10 major islands (9 of them inhabited) and 5 islets, all of volcanic origin and divided into two sub groups. To the north is the Barlavento (Windward) group (Santo Antão, São Vicente, Santa Luzia, Ilheu Branco, Ilheu Raso, São Nicolau, Sal and Boa Vista). To the south is the Sotavento (Leeward) group (Maio, Santiago, Fogo and Brava). Wonderful un crowded beaches, dramatic mountainous scenery (on some Islands), charming, welcoming and extremely ?laid-back? inhabitants, and the fact that the Cape Verde Islands are in the very early stages of touristic development, make this a destination of immense attraction to those who seek somewhere new and different to bask in the sun.

Climate & Weather: The climate is tropical and dry. The average daytime temperature remains around 25°c and whilst there are highs and lows due to the influence from the Ocean, the changes do not exceed 10°c. The sea temperature is between 21°c in February and March up to 25°c in September and October. Rainfall is, unfortunately for the farmers, very rare. The Sea temperature is several degrees warmer than the Canaries. The Islands can be windy, particularly the North-easterly Trade Wind can be strong, however this keeps temperatures and humidity lower and encourages some exciting water sports. Activities - snorkelling and scuba diving - sailing, surfing and windsurfing - walking and trekking ? cycling - bird watching - fishing (big game, shore and salt water fly).
