Portuguese is the official language on Cape Verde, with local accents and creole varieties, so a little of either goes a long way when ordering. Island cooking leans on fresh seafood, tuna, maize and root vegetables such as cassava and sweet potato, which shapes what appears on local menus. Sea temperatures stay warm enough for swimming for much of the year, though the water is cooler than in the Mediterranean.
