Visiting an Archipelago


Sixty miles west of Morocco lies an archipelago named after, canes, a breed of large dogs that once lived there. Formed from underwater volcanoes, this group of islands in the Atlantic is one of the most popular places to vacation in the world. Teams in the Volvo Ocean Race will race past these islands on their way to Cape Town, South Africa. See if you can learn more about them.

1. What is the name of this archipelago?
2. They are a territory of what European country?
3. What is the climate like?
4. Can you look on an atlas or map and name another archipelago?
