Itinerary Overview
Q & A
What tips would you give a friend?
If you get the chance, definitely try and explore multiple islands.
Packing tips?
Definitely bring suncream and light floaty clothing, it is a very hot country!
Any surprises?
Make sure you check the currency exchange rate, as it is probably quite different to what you are used to, and make sure people do not rip you off!
Lodging
I was sailing across, and so we stayed on our boat in the marina (Mindelo Marina). But the marina was very nice, it allowed us to tie up our tender onshore, and it had a great bar.
