Why Cape Verde and The Irish Connection?

Cape Verde is an island republic off the coast of West Africa. It has been described as being Southernmost Europe, Westernmost Africa and Easternmost Caribbean - all at the same time. The nine islands of the archipelago are also surprisingly different from each other, in terms of landscape, people and culture.

Here, at The Irish Connection, we can help both source the property of your dreams and secure it too.

The islands are divided into two groups named according to the trade winds that reach them from the African Continent: windward and leeward.

The first group consists of the islands of Santo Antão, S.Vicente, Santa Luzia (uninhabited), S.Nicolau, Sal, Boavista, and the second, more to the South, comprises the islands of Maio, Santiago, Fogo and Brava. The sun spreads its warmth the whole year round, soothed by the fresh seabreeze. The climate is tropical and dry. The average temperature is approximately 25°C and changes do not exceed 10°C.

With vast beaches that allow for all types of water sports, impressive mountains, high quality fish, various types of delicious seafood and the melodious beauty of its music all distinguish Cape Verde as an exciting tourist destination and one heck of a place to live!!
