Dive Worldwide has added another destination to its 2006 programme, the remote Cape Verde archipelago, 250 miles off Africa. The island of Sal, the holiday base, is said to offer the sort of Caribbean-style underwater scenery rarely found on the West African coast or Canary Islands, with plentiful marine life and big caves, canyons and walls. Seven nights with breakfast at the four-star beachside Hotel Belorizonte in Sabased on Sal (left) costs£999, with scheduled flights with TAP via Lisbon, transfers and a 10-dive package. |
