Paradise in the middle of the ocean: the islands where it is always warm are named ideal for winter holidays

Only a six-hour flight from the UK, the Cape Verde Islands have become one of the best winter vacation destinations. The beautiful archipelago of 10 islands offers many options for those looking for sun, sea, and comfort under the palm trees.

Cape Verde attracts tourists every year with its year-round warm climate with an average temperature of 25 °C, making it a great alternative for a winter trip, writes Liverpool Echo.

Among the most popular destinations of the archipelago are the islands of Sal, Santiago, and Boa Vista. The island of Sal, known for its white sandy beaches and turquoise waters, is the main tourist area of Cape Verde. Here, tourists can find numerous resorts and activities that satisfy the most demanding tastes, from water sports to relaxing on the beach.

The coastline of Salou stretches for 8 kilometers and is ideal for surfing, diving, and other outdoor activities. However, even those who just want to sunbathe and enjoy the sea views will find the perfect conditions here. Cape Verde is famous for its vibrant culture, which combines African, Portuguese, and Brazilian traditions, and is reflected in the architecture, cuisine, and music of the islands.

For cultural and historical discoveries, you should head to the island of Santiago, which enchants with its colonial architecture and lively markets. The capital of the archipelago, Praia, welcomes tourists with colorful markets like Sucupira and the majestic Presidential Palace. History buffs can visit the old town of Cidade Velha, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which is the first European settlement in the tropics.

San Vicente, another one of the ten islands of the archipelago, beckons music lovers. The city of Mindelo on San Vicente is the cultural capital, known for the melodies of traditional morna music, which mesmerizes everyone who hears it. San Vicente is also a center of nightlife, where visitors can fully immerse themselves in the local atmosphere.

Adventure enthusiasts can travel to Fogo Island, where the Pico do Fogo volcano is located. The mountainous landscape and majestic views attract climbers from all over the world, offering them a unique opportunity to see the island from above and experience unforgettable emotions.

Cape Verde is ideal for those who are looking for a winter vacation in a warm country without leaving Europe for a long time.
