Can you walk around Cape Verde?

The paths on the islands are not waymarked and finding your way independently can be difficult, which is why we only recommend certain self-guided routes. The most spectacular of them all is the coastal walk from Cruzinha to Ponta do Sol on Santo Antão.

Since the islands sit further south than the Canary Islands, temperatures are even hotter. Yet, just like all islands, there is a rainy season and for Cape Verde, this is in April. If wall-to-wall sunshine is what you are after, then the best time to visit the islands is between June and November.

Both islands are very much the same, however I would say Boa Vista a lot less developed. I first visited Sal in 2007 and again in 2016 and it hasn't changed and I'd say will be the same story with both islands in another 10 years. We did island tours on both islands and much more enjoyed Sal on the whole.
