Renting a car for island hopping in Cape Verde

With a rental car, the entire archipelago is your oyster! Just remember, you can't drive between islands (unless you've got a really, really good car). Ferries are your friend here, and Sodade Tours can help arrange car transport between islands.

When planning your multi-island adventure, start with the must-sees on each island, then fill in the gaps with hidden gems. And remember, island time is a real thing - don't overstuff your schedule. Leave room for spontaneous detours and beach naps!

Driving and road conditions in Cape Verde

In Cape Verde, they drive on the right side of the road. Speed limits are generally 50 km/h in towns and 80 km/h on open roads. And please, for the love of cachupa, don't drink and drive!

Road conditions can vary wildly depending on which island you're on. Some roads are smooth sailing, others... not so much. Keep an eye out for potholes, especially on rural roads. And those mountain roads? They're not for the faint-hearted, but the views are totally worth it!

Santiago has history in spades. Drive up to Cidade Velha, a UNESCO World Heritage site. And Fogo? It's volcano time, baby! The drive up to the crater is an adventure in itself.
