The Foreign Office has updated its safety and security advice to British holidaymakers as the summer getaway season begins.
UK holidaymakers are being urged to swim in pairs or groups when visiting Cape Verde, following a new warning issued by the Foreign Office.
The Foreign Office cautioned: "Tides and currents around the islands are very strong. Take care when walking close to the water's edge, especially along unsupervised stretches of beach." It further added: "Waves can be unpredictable and have a strong undertow." The society advises: "Always keep children under the constant supervision of a capable adult.and keep small children within arm's reach. 83 per cent of child drownings occur in the absence of adult supervision. Always choose to visit a lifeguarded venue wherever possible. Swim with others.
It adds: "When visiting new places, take time to review safety notices. Find out what local signs and flags mean. Always look out for potential hazards and warn members of your group to avoid possible risks."
