🇨🇻 Cape Verde eSIM
Cape Verde is an archipelago of ten volcanic islands in the Atlantic, 570km off the West African coast — a place where African, Portuguese, and Brazilian cultures have fused into something uniquely its own, expressed in the mournful, beautiful music of morna (Cape Verde's own fado, popularised globally by Cesária Évora), the colourful architecture of Mindelo on São Vicente, and some of the Atlantic's most consistently excellent wind and kite surfing conditions on the flat sandy island of Sal. Each island has a distinct character: Santiago is cultural and mountainous; Fogo has an active volcano; Santo Antão offers spectacular hiking in dramatic green valleys.

Among the world's best — Sal's Ponta Preta and São Vicente's Mindelo Bay are globally renowned. Consistent trade winds from November to July make it a pilgrimage destination for the kite and wind surfing community.
