Cape Verde Islands – a “Tropical Paradise”
Not only are the Cape Verde Islands regarded as the hottest holiday hot spot for 2007, they’re also set to become one of the most lucrative investment areas this year. Every year there are more and more property developments springing up as investment opportunities soar.

These paradise islands are located in the crystal clear blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean around 300 miles off the west coast of Africa. They’ re one of the closest tropical climes to the UK. You don’t need to go all the way to the Caribbean anymore. With temperatures between 22-27 degrees all year round the Cape Verde Islands are a fantastic alternative!

Getting here is has never been easier. You can now fly through various European airports (Paris, Lisbon, Amsterdam, and Las Palmas and Gran Canaria) or direct from the UK (London Gatwick and Birmingham). It takes between five and six hours from the UK.

Sal (the “Salt” island) is one of the most popular investment areas on the archipelago at the moment. Home to an International Airport, Sal is an ideal base for island hopping.

It’s an island famous for its stunning white sand beaches and guaranteed sun, all year long. Sal’s international airport is one of the major gateways to the Cape Verde islands.
