Our island tour commenced today with a trek across the island. All kitted out with our carry bags and footwear we headed into the jungle compromising gaps, rocks, mountains, jumps, leaps, streams, muck, insects and a few falls along the way. Nothing too serious though except for Mike nearly going over the edge!! Our destination was one of the top 10 beaches in the world on the other side of the island. Along the way we encountered 3 other very beautiful and quiet beaches. Over 2 hrs of trekking later we made it to “The Beach” which was like paradise. 3 km of squeaky clean white sand attacked by a barrage of beautiful blue ocean waves. A total of 50 people were present on the beach, plenty room to manoeuvre! It was like our own little secret getaway and no one on earth could find us or disturb this moment. A piece of heaven on Earth!!
We literally spent the day there hanging out, taking in the sights, catching the suns rays, swimming and playing footy. Perfect! To avoid another trek back we boarded up on a boat for our trip round the island back to the village. That evening we enjoyed fabulous seafood by candlelight inebriated by the sounds of the Atlantic Ocean over our shoulder. A magical place. A beautiful island. A paradise.
