  • Cape Verde has other uninhabited islands (Ihleu Secos, Razo, Branco)
  • Yes, Cape Verde has other uninhabited islands, but they are small and are called "ilhéu" (that is islet in English). Santa Luzia is the only inhabited of the ten bigger called "ilha" (island). It is one of the ten stars of the Cape-Verdean flag.
