Cape Verde eSIM for Santiago, Sal and São Vicente
Compare Cape Verde eSIM plans for an exact Santiago address, a separate Sal stop and a confirmed arrangement in São Vicente.
Cape Verde is an archipelago with international airports identified on Santiago, Sal, Boa Vista and São Vicente. For an itinerary using Santiago, Sal or São Vicente, attach the accommodation and pickup to the correct island name before departure. Keep every inter-island booking and the next confirmed contact offline. Separate island files make the journey easier to follow; they do not imply uninterrupted reception across water or at every island location.
For this trip
Which Cape Verde eSIM fits this trip?
Choose a Cape Verde plan whose validity runs from arrival for the first island stay on the booked itinerary through final departure from the last island, whether the route includes Santiago, Sal, São Vicente or all three. Allow enough data for daily messages and maps, media uploads, internet calls and sharing the connection with a laptop. Confirm Cape Verde in the exact destination list and check any other country separately.
Horizon is the seller of the Cape Verde plans on this page. Read each live card before choosing: match its data and validity to the island dates and confirm that Cape Verde appears in the destination list.

How eSIM works in Cape Verde
Install the Cape Verde eSIM over reliable Wi-Fi before departure, and save the QR code and manual details offline. Keep the profile off while travelling to Cape Verde. After reaching the first Cape Verde island on your itinerary, select Horizon for mobile data and switch on roaming for that line. The eSIM’s first successful connection to a supported network in Cape Verde marks day one of the chosen validity period. The plan provides data but no local phone number. A compatible dual-SIM phone can keep the home line available, although its provider may charge for use abroad.
Install your eSIM
Scan the QR or auto-install in the app — no physical SIM.
Land & connect
Data activates on first connection at your destination.
Size it to your trip
Pick the profile closest to your trip. The estimate assumes normal use — maps, messaging, photos, a short call home.
As a rule of thumb, a 3–4 day city break runs on about 1–3 GB, a one-week trip on 3–5 GB, a two-week multi-country tour on 8–12 GB, and working on the road takes about 1 GB a day, so 15 GB or more for two weeks.

In total, a 5 GB data allowance covers roughly 1,700 shared photos, 83 hours of social media and browsing, 15 hours of video calls, 63 hours of music streaming, or about 1000 hours of maps and navigation. Messaging apps barely use data.
Important cities in Cape Verde
Santiago · City guide
Santiago
For a confirmed arrival on Santiago, save the accommodation entrance, pickup contact and island name together before departure. If another island comes first, keep the Santiago file separate until that leg begins.
Santiago eSIM — set up before you fly →Sal · City guide
Sal
If Sal is part of the itinerary, store its hotel or accommodation address, transfer contact and onward booking as one island file. Keep those details separate from Santiago or any other island on the same trip.
Sal eSIM — set up before you fly →São Vicente · City guide
São Vicente
Keep the São Vicente accommodation entrance and local contact beside any confirmed meeting instructions in one offline note. Add the confirmed onward or return arrangement so this island’s details remain distinct from Santiago and Sal.

Choose for the whole Cape Verde itinerary
Count every day in Cape Verde, then estimate messages and maps separately from photo uploads or laptop sharing. Confirm Cape Verde on the exact destination list before buying. Cape Verde is outside Horizon's current Africa regional selection, so use a separate country plan for this visit. Check another country independently if it appears anywhere in the route.

Frequently asked questions
What fits a stay in Santiago?
Count every Santiago date and the data you expect to use between the accommodation and confirmed appointments. Start with your observed daily use of messages and maps, then add planned document, photo or video transfers.
How should I prepare for Sal?
Before the Sal leg, download its accommodation confirmation and transfer contact, and label both with the island name. Include the Sal dates and any planned photo or file work when comparing data amounts.
What should I save for São Vicente?
Create a São Vicente offline note with the booked lodging entrance, local contact, precise meeting instructions and confirmed return. That keeps the island-specific directions together when the Santiago and Sal reservations are on the same phone.
Does the Africa regional selection include Cape Verde?
No. Horizon’s current Africa regional selection does not include Cape Verde. Choose a Cape Verde country plan and check any other country in the itinerary separately.
Can I share data from my phone?
Yes. Every Horizon Cape Verde plan includes hotspot at no charge. Your phone and connected devices use data from the same plan allowance, and Horizon does not throttle that connection.
When should I turn on the eSIM?
Complete the installation on reliable Wi-Fi before leaving, but keep the line switched off on the way to Cape Verde. Turn it on after arrival; its first successful connection to a supported network in the country counts as day one of the chosen period.
