Cabo Verde, also known as Cape Verde, is an island country located in the central Atlantic Ocean. It consists of an archipelago of 10 volcanic islands and several islets, known for their diverse landscapes, including mountains, valleys, and beaches. The islands are situated about 570 kilometers (350 miles) off the west coast of Africa. Cabo Verde is characterized by a temperate climate, with variations between the islands.
