The
Cape Verde government are currently enhancing
the island economy and tourism is their top priority. Cape
Verde is in the early stages of development as a top international
tourist destination, this makes it an ideal time to invest.
The island
of Sal, ‘The
Salt Island’ is an excellent starting point from where
you can island hop to discover tropical plantations, go walking
around the old town in Santiago,
take in breath taking mountain views of Monte Verde in Sao
Vincente or simply soak up the sun and surf.
From
a business perspective there are many reasons why you should
consider investing in the initial phase of growth; exchange
rate of the local currency is fixed to the Euro, a new International
Airport on the island of Santiago is now receiving direct
flights from the USA and analysts predict a 70% increase in
property value over the next 24 months.
During
2006 Cape Verde National carrier TACV
will be introducing direct short haul flights from the UK,
approximately 5.5 hours flying time. Low cost operators are
expected to follow shortly afterwards, increasing the accessibility
to the islands, thus, increasing the rental potential of your
property.
The Cape
Verde Islands are the nearest tropical islands to the UK;
they are awaiting you to discover them!
Area
and History
The uninhabited islands were discovered and colonised by the
Portuguese in the 15th century; Cape Verde subsequently became
a trading centre for African slaves and later an important
coaling and re-supply top for whaling and transatlantic shipping.
Following
independence in 1975, a one-party system was established and
maintained until multi-party elections were held in 1990.
Cape Verde continues to exhibit one of Africa´s most
stable democratic governments.
Climate
Cape Verde is four hours closer to mainland UK than the Caribbean,
with the ideal climate without the hurricanes. Cape Verde
enjoys a temperate climate, warm dry summers, with little
and irregular rainfall.
