Cape Verde - The Green Cape

Article Date: 2007-10-12

It should not come as a great surprise to any person searching for a suitable location to want to keep a permanent abode on one of the islands of Cape Verde. These islands have a magnetic charm that is produced by the unique culture that has evolved. The combination of African warmth and a vibrant Portuguese nature has combined as the two main influences on the islands. So pleasing is the character of these islands that it would be hard to imagine that until the fifteenth century the islands of Cape Verde were completely uninhabited. Contemporary Cape Verdeans are the descendents of mainly resilient Portuguese and African settlers who started sugar cane plantations. These green plantations would have reminded some of the new inhabitants of their Cap Vert in Senegal. Cap Vert meaning green cape, became Cape Verde, a fitting tribute to these beautiful islands.

This natural beauty has continued to attract visitors to invest in property for the purpose of private vacations or to rent out as an investment. There are a number of large Cape Verdean communities that have been established in North America as well as Europe and many of these individuals prefer to rent private homes for their visits to the islands of Cape Verde. American and European visitors have made Cape Verde a popular choice for a vacation because of all that the islands have to offer. The way of life has grown from the abundant influence of the sea and is therefore a great asset. Property that would be available to the many investors would be in keeping with the expectations of international visitors.
