New flights draw visitors to Cape Verde

More and more people are choosing to visit Cape Verde due to the introduction of direct flights, an expert has said.

Sarah Brown from NuBricks.com said the country is currently attracting a record number of foreign visitors as it is now more easily accessible.

She stated that this has resulted in the creation of extra leisure facilities and amenities, such as supermarkets, bars and recreational outlets.

In addition, she said property in Cape Verde has also benefited from investment in various infrastructure improvements across the country.

This means the archipelago now offers the living standards and convenience demanded by foreign visitors.

As a result, it has become a popular choice for overseas property investors and second home buyers from abroad.

Ms Brown remarked: "Cape Verde has become something of a magnet for property investors."

According to the Office for National Statistics, about 848,000 people from the UK currently own a second home abroad.
