Background (Canary Islands)
Located off the west coast of Morocco, these Spanish Islands are famous for their perfect climate, excellent nightlife, spectacular landscapes and world-class beaches.

With continued growth throughout the archipelago, despite the recent slump on the mainland, the Canary Islands are a much sought after investment option.

The Islands
Tenerife
Tenerife is home to Mount Teide – the highest mountain in the whole of Spain. This mighty volcano towers over a spectacularly diverse landscape of deserts, lush green forests, black volcanic and white sandy beaches.

Tenerife has a perfect year-round climate. With the potential to rent out properties all throughout the year at “tourist rates”, it’s no wonder the island is a favourite with investors.

Gran Canaria
This paradise island has cosy year-round temperatures of between 18ºC in winter and 25ºC in the summer.

Property prices are increasing here at between 10 and 15 % per annum. Like Tenerife it offers fantastic opportunities in buy to let investment.

Lanzarote
Lanzarote is the fourth largest of the Canary Islands. It’s situated just 70 miles off the west coast of Morocco and known for its surreal volcanic landscape and excellent beaches.

At the moment, two of the hottest investment areas on Lanzarote are Playa Blanca and Costa Teguise. Here you’ll find a large selection of new developments, which should potentially make very large returns on investment.

Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura has some of the best beaches in the Canary Islands – some of the best beaches in Europe!

This fascinating desert Island has just recently taken off. With year round sunshine, buyers have made huge returns on investments on guaranteed rental properties. Two of the most popular investment areas are Caleta de Fuste and Corralejo in the north of the island.

Land for sale in Cape Verde is a much sought after commodity as it represents a first-rate investment opportunity. There are numerous new developments on the islands (including Ponta Preta and Tortuga Beach) that have already produced significant returns on investment.

Now is one of the best times to invest in Cape Verde. Prices are still low and property vales are expected to increase dramatically. As well as being a top holiday destination, Cape Verde is widely regarded as the hottest investment area for 2007.

All the major tour operators are now starting to invest heavily into this tropical paradise.

Cape Verde Overview
The Cape Verde Islands are located off the west coast of Senegal (Africa), just one hour south of Spain’s Canary Islands.

In total, the archipelago consists of ten idyllic tropical islands, known for their spectacular mountain scenery and beautiful deserted beaches.

Cape Verde has a total land area of 4,033 square kilometres. Sao Tiago, the largest island, covers 991 square kilometres. Santo Antao is the second largest island, followed by Boa Vista, Fogo, Sao Nicolau, Maio, Sao Vicente, Sal, Brava, and Santa Luzia. Santa Luzia and the five islets are uninhabited.

Each of the islands has its own distinct natural character… from the volcanic Sao Nicolau to the diving paradise of Boa Vista. Santiago is often described as lush green paradise compared to Sal, (the “salt island”) which is a lot sandier.

Investing in Cape Verde

Cape Verde is an attractive alternative to the Caribbean. It has the same perfect climate and excellent beaches, yet it’s four hours less flying time.

Buying your own piece of land in Cape Verde means owning your very own piece of tropical island with pristine white beaches, year round sunshine and endless charm.

Most investors are looking to the island of Sal as it’s becoming one of the most fashionable resorts on the archipelago and it’s also home to an international airport with direct flights to Europe and the UK.

Santa Maria on the island of Sal is now rapidly expanding and it’s predicted that in the future prices here will be at a premium. Sal is located around 460km from the West African coast and boasts all year round temperatures of between 22-27 degrees.
