d with full board from €455)
No phones. No TV.
No air-con. No human pressures on the environment. Just you, masses of birds, 28 giant
turtles, the inky blue ocean and sensational beaches. Enjoy this slice of untouched para-
dise in one of the 24 simple yet genuinely ecofriendly and agreeably designed chalets.
They rest in a leafy plot, a thong's throw from the beach. A host of activities are available.
Why not take a dolphin-spotting cruise? Or snorkel over sensational reefs just offshore?
Or simply chill out on a secluded beach? Food is a definite plus, with copious meals using
local ingredients, including (you guessed it) sooty tern eggs.
