Cape Verde Travel

Cape Verde Travel – Cape Verde is a lovely country to visit, but how do you get there and how do you travel around? This section of the website provides information on both these aspects of visiting the Cape Verde islands. It also deals with the holiday visas and tourist tax. All visitors need to complete an online registration prior to arriving in Cape Verde. Visitors from some countries will require a visa in addition.

From 15 September 2022 the previous rules for travel during the covid pandemic have been relaxed in Cape Verde. Travellers to the country no longer have to provide proof of vaccination or a negative covid test result. The wearing of face coverings on transport (road, sea or air) is no longer a requirement. People leaving Cape Verde have to comply by the rules in the destination country.

Travel to Cape Verde

International travel. There are flights into Cape Verde from many countries in Europe, the USA and from some African countries. The most popular times to visit are the winter months from October through to May. Therefore more flights are available during these months than during the summer months.

Travel around Cape Verde

Domestic travel. Most islands have an airport, and are also served by ferries. However, the islands of Santo Antão and Brava can only be reached by ferry. Making an extra effort to visit some of the islands that are more difficult to reach will prove very worthwhile. There is such variety amongst the islands that to stick only to the main tourist islands (Sal and Boa Vista) would be a shame.
