Cape Verde is a country defined by limits—and how it responds to them. A group of volcanic islands off the west coast of Africa, it has little natural water, limited arable land, and a small domestic market. Yet it has built an economy that connects tourism, diaspora, energy, and geography into a functioning system. At the centre of Cape Verde’s economy is tourism. Islands such as Sal and Boa Vista attract visitors with beaches , warm climate, and ocean views. Resorts, hotel
