Yellow Fever is not present in Cape Verde, but a valid ICVP certificate may be required if you are arriving from, or have recently travelled through, a country with risk of Yellow Fever transmission.

Mosquito-borne illnesses such as dengue can occur in Cape Verde, particularly during and after the rainy season. Using DEET-based repellents, covering exposed skin and sleeping in screened or air-conditioned rooms are sensible precautions. Our pharmacists can advise on bite avoidance for your trip.
Travellers' diarrhoea can affect visitors to Cape Verde. Drinking bottled or treated water, being cautious with ice, and choosing freshly prepared food are good general precautions. Hepatitis A and typhoid can be linked to contaminated food and water, which is why vaccination may be recommended before your trip.
Cape Verde has a warm, sunny climate year-round. Heat-related illness, dehydration and sunburn are common, avoidable risks. Use high-factor sun protection, drink plenty of water, and take care during the hottest part of the day, particularly if you are active outdoors.
As with any trip, it is sensible to carry a basic first-aid kit, ensure you have adequate travel insurance, and bring enough of any regular medication. Our pharmacists can review your routine vaccinations and offer practical advice to help you stay well throughout your stay.
Good news for travellers: Cape Verde is considered a very low-risk destination for malaria. The World Health Organization certified Cape Verde as malaria-free in 2024, so antimalarial tablets are not routinely needed for a typical trip.
Cape Verde was certified malaria-free by the World Health Organization in 2024. For most travellers, malaria is not a routine concern and antimalarial medication is generally not required for a standard trip.
If your wider itinerary includes other destinations, or if you have particular health concerns, our pharmacists will review your full travel plans and give clear, personalised advice on whether any antimalarial precautions are needed.
Even where malaria is not a concern, avoiding mosquito bites remains sensible to reduce the risk of other mosquito-borne illnesses. Use insect repellent, cover exposed skin in the evening, and sleep in screened or air-conditioned rooms where possible.
