Cape Verde is set for a surge in visitor numbers next year, according to a regional newspaper in the UK.

The Essex Chronicle stated that islands would be the "hot new holiday destination" for 2008 and attract more interest from Britons.

Figures cited by the publication showed that the tourist trade in Cape Verde was already going through a period of continuing growth.

Between 2000 and 2006, visitor numbers were said to have increased from 67,000 to 280,000, while this year's number is expected to reach 320,000.

The newspaper attributed its appeal to its good weather, as Cape Verde is the most easily accessible tropical destination from the UK.

It added that since there was a time difference of only one hour, people could fly there without experiencing jet lag.

Earlier this year, Cape Verde's national airline TACV began offering direct flights from Praia to Stansted Airport.

Speaking at the time of the launch, the carrier said it was providing the service in response to strong demand from holidaymakers and second home owners.
