Cape Verde Islands: The Bradt Travel Guide introduces the treasures of a fascinating and diverse landscape. Marvel at the sublime power of Fogo’s volcano and the rugged magnificence of the cliffs and gulleys at Santo Antao. Stroll undisturbed on golden beaches or surf among waves which are relished by watersports enthusiasts.
From the sweet and melancholic harmonies of the morna to the joyful and sensuous strains of the funana, music expresses the soul of Cape Verde. As evening falls, choose a restaurant or café, and immerse yourself in the soothing melodies of these magical, musical islands.
This guide includes: fully updated information on where to stay, eat and visit; clear maps and town plans; guide to the wildlife – and where to see it; in-depth information on culture and history; detailed hiking routes; surfing and other watersports.
