Am thinking of booking an all-inclusive package to Cape Verde for some winter sun. The two possibilities seem to be either Sal or Boavista and I know these islands have a pretty limited number of the Cape Verde endemics and other species.
I was wondering how practical (and expensive !) it might be to have a couple of trips to other islands in the group. I will be with my non-birding wife ,so they will have to be day trips. Does anyone have experience of doing anything like this ? There are some reports of "serious" birding tours to Cape Verde, but they all seem to be trips involving staying on 4 or so different islands.
I'm not bothered about seeing ALL the endemics , but the two packaged islands seem to have few of them.
Thanks, Bill.
