  • This is an amazing Island to visit. It has a very interesting history and you can tour the old prison. It is also a refuge for the Giant Tortoise in the area. You can go in and feed them and play with the older ones. If you sit on the adult tortoises, they are large and strong enough to walk around with you on their backs. The beaches surround the island are also great for snorkeling.
