Cheap Flights to Sal, Cape Verde – April, May & June

As spring turns into early summer across Europe, Cape Verde becomes one of the most attractive and affordable destinations for sun seekers.
From April to June, the island of Sal offers a perfect mix of warm weather, fewer crowds, and some of the best flight deals of the year.

During this period, temperatures range between 23°C and 28°C, with long sunny days, refreshing ocean breezes, and very little rainfall. It’s the ideal time to enjoy the island at a slower pace—perfect for beach lovers, couples, and smart travelers looking for great value.

Portugal remains the main gateway to Cape Verde, with frequent direct flights to Sal (SID).
Connections from Lisbon and Porto are reliable and operate throughout April, May, and June.

Low-cost airlines like easyJet offer direct flights from London Gatwick and Lisbon, making Sal easily accessible for travelers from the UK and beyond.

From cities such as Milan, Paris, and Amsterdam, flights are typically available with one stop (usually via Lisbon), offering flexibility and competitive pricing.

Based on current trends from platforms, this period offers some of the best value of the year:

€120–€180 one-way from Lisbon or Porto
€220–€300 round-trip from major European cities
£120–£160 one-way from London Gatwick with easyJet (selected dates)

April tends to mark the beginning of lower fares after the winter peak, while May and early June often offer the most competitive prices before summer demand increases.

This is one of the most enjoyable times to visit Sal. The island feels more relaxed, with fewer tourists compared to winter, yet all services, excursions, and activities are fully operational.

April and May are perfect for:

- Long beach days and ocean swims
- Kitesurfing and water sports (excellent wind conditions)
- Exploring Santa Maria and local culture
- Enjoying restaurants, music, and Cape Verdean atmosphere

June brings slightly warmer temperatures while still maintaining a comfortable climate, ideal for both relaxation and adventure.

Use flexible date searches. Booking 4–6 weeks in advance usually guarantees the best balance between price and availability.
