Cap-Vert

Cap-Vert, or the Cape Verde Peninsula, and Kap Weert or Bopp bu Nëtëx (in Wolof), is a peninsula in Senegal and the westernmost point of the continent of Africa and of the Afro-Eurasia mainland.

Portuguese explorers called it Cabo Verde or "Green Cape".

Dakar, the capital of Senegal, occupies parts including its southern tip.

It is delimited by two capes, Pointe des Almadies to the northwest and cap Manuel to the southeast.

It is identified with the Hesperu Ceras (literally "western horn") mentioned by Classical Graeco-Roman authors as the westernmost point of the African continent.
