Cape Verde aims to become a leading golfing holiday destination
In May 2006, Cape Verde’s government, the local developer Cape Verde Development, Ernie Els, the company owned by the world famous golfer of the same name and PGA Golf Management, signed a contract which will mean Cape Verde will receive substantial investments aimed at making the country a top golfing tourism destination. The projects, which include two tourist resorts, one on Sal Island (Murdeira Beach) and the other on Sao Vicente (Baía das Gatas), should be completed in 2011.
