Sunshine, sea views, and peaceful fairways – discover the laid-back golfing charm of Cape Verde.
Cape Verde is a rising star for golfers seeking winter sun, striking landscapes, and a relaxed island vibe. Located off the west coast of Africa, this Atlantic archipelago offers year-round warmth, making it an ideal escape from the cold. While golf here is still developing, the standout is the Vila do Maio Golf Course and the Vila Verde Resort on Sal Island, offering scenic layouts with volcanic backdrops, sea views, and cooling ocean breezes. The uncrowded fairways and peaceful setting make it perfect for laid-back rounds at your own pace. Off the course, Cape Verde is all about barefoot luxury – sun-soaked beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a mix of African and Portuguese culture. Think live music, fresh seafood, and colourful towns to explore. With shorter flight times than the Caribbean and a unique charm all of its own, Cape Verde is a hidden gem for a relaxing and memorable golf holiday.
