          Maio Island is part of Cabo Verde, an archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean off West Africa.

          Maio is one of the ten main islands of the Republic of Cape Verde, an Atlantic archipelago situated approximately 570 kilometres west of the coast of Senegal. It belongs to the Sotavento (leeward) island group and is administered as part of Maio Municipality.
