Island Hopping excursions
Due to the geography of the island, the beach is narrow and the sea can be quite choppy for swimming, at times. Twice Daily excursions to the sandbank for sun-bathing or snorkelling (Free of charge!) are highly recommended. It's a wonderful experience being on a sandbank in the ocean and the reefs are full of life and untouched. The sandbanks have sunbeds, sunshades and complimentary bottles of water. Daily guided snorkelling safaris are complimentary - available subject to sea conditions and number of guests - also highly recommended as this area is virgin diving and snorkelling territory!

Our Opinion
This stunning natural island provides you with a perfect place to rest and relax away from it all. The accommodation is beautiful and surprisingly spacious – especially the Duplex Villas. The snorkeling trips to the sandbanks are amazing and the reefs are pristine. For most clients we recommended the All Inclusive upgrade as drinks can be pricey. Food and beverage excellent.
