The vibe: The calm before the storm
Picture this: Ilha do Sal, the jewel of the ten Cape Verde islands off the west coast of Africa, is a place you'll be reading more about. Young in-the-know fashionistas are heading en masse to the sublime beaches and laid-back nightlife of Santa Maria town. Lap up the eye candy, go deep-sea fishing, and swap tall stories in the mellow bars when the sun goes down. Get here before the stampede.
The crowd: Steaming-hot French and Italian kite-surfing hunks (they discovered Sal first) hang with the equally buff locals, while lithe beauties sun themselves on dive boats.
The sundowner: The lethal sugarcane brew Grog at Tam Tam bar in town.
Come to bed: Sleep late at the inviting Hotel Morabeza—the current "in" hotel on the beach. It has 140 guest rooms with private terraces, a gym, plus tennis courts and a freshwater pool.
