In a statement, the government assumed that the invitation \u201cis particularly opportune at a time when there is a significant increase in demand for Cape Verde as a tourist destination by the Portuguese\u201d \u2013 recent data from INE show that Portugal is the second largest source of tourism tourists to the archipelago, representing 12.2% of arrivals and 12.3% of overnight stays in the second quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe presence at BTL appears as an excellent opportunity for Cape Verde to assert itself as a differentiated tourist destination, celebrating its people, landscapes, culture and historical heritage, in line with the Tourism Operational Plan 2022\/2026. This plan aims to diversify markets, enhance the tourism product and promote environmental sustainability\u201d, reads the same document.<\/p>\n<p>This Tuesday, in Lisbon, at a press conference, the Minister of Tourism and Transport reiterated the Government&#8217;s commitment to promoting the Cape Verde tourist destination.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to start this journey at BTL, highlighting the charm of Cape Verde\u201d, said Carlos Santos, quoted by Inforpress. \u201cWe want to present not only the stunning beaches of Boa Vista and Sal, but also our rich culture, ecotourism, water sports and much more\u201d, continued the official.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to meetings with Portuguese tour operators, Cape Verde seeks to strengthen relationships with international partners interested in collaborating and investing in the country&#8217;s tourism development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd this opportunity that we will have at the Lisbon Tourism Exchange is precisely for us to present this destination. These are islands very close to the European continent, but also to say that this is the year in which we will be able to reach the threshold of one million tourists and, therefore, it is with a greater responsibility that we are here\u201d, said Carlos Santos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBTL is a crucial opportunity for us to present our new tourism, focused on sustainability and diversification of the offer (&#8230;).
