Unlike many other travel companies we operate on a trust account model. Once we’ve paid the airline for your flights, the rest of your money is held in a trust account. We do not have access to this directly and can only withdraw funds when you are back home from holiday
All of our holidays that include flights are protected by the ATOL scheme from the moment you book. So if one of our suppliers fails, you’ll get your money back. If you’re left stranded abroad, a flight home will be arranged at no extra cost. Our ATOL number is 11806
As proud ABTA members we deliver the highest standards when it comes to our holidays. So if you book with us you’re guaranteed the best service. Our ABTA number is P8283, Y6720.
What's the weather like in Cape Verde in January?
Located in the North Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of North Africa, Cape Verde enjoys year-round sun. Even a holiday to the ‘African Caribbean’ in January guarantees lots of sunshine, and you'll get hardly any rain at this time.
Climatic variances
Cape Verde’s a tropical destination but rarely gets rain; only between August and October do some of its islands see rain showers. The most popular islands, Sal and Boa Vista, don't get much rain at all. Thanks to the surrounding ocean, Cape Verde stays cooler than mainland Africa with sea breezes and trade winds keeping temperatures comfortable. Cape Verde’s quite flat so it’s fairly windy, which will keep you cool when you're on the coast.
Averages
Sal has an average high temperature of 25ºC in January, with things staying quite warm in the evenings, so you won’t need to bring many warmer clothes. The sea temperature’s around 22ºC, while humidity’s low. Rainfall’s typically just 6mm over a single rainy day, and you can expect 11 hours of daylight with six hours of sunshine each day. UV levels will be very high so don’t forget to take sun cream. Sunset’s at 6.10pm at the start of the month and gradually gets later.
