ContentsWhat do i do on a small island?

click to enlargeWell, you want to get away from it all. But having used to life in the fast lane, you couldn't help wonder what you can do on a small island. The truth is, when you get to your small island in paradise any concerns about what there is to do disappear into the clear blue waters around you. Magically, you feel free! You no longer yearn for something to do.

Resort brochures mention endless sports facilities and excursions they offer. And rightly so! Prospective holidaymakers often check out to see the availability of all this before they select their island. In addition, you would certainly pack a fair amount of reading materials, so that there will be something to do. Surprisingly when you get there you'll notice that the click to enlargeflood lit tennis court is mostly vacant, excursions get cancelled because not enough people sign in and you would surely look at the bag of books that you have packed but haven't found the time to read. In the first couple of days you'll obviously try out the facilities. However, chances are that you'll realise that it is more worth your while to spend the day under a palm tree at the beach simply looking out into the blue horizon - the evenings in the bar, out on the open-air-deck under the stars, making new friends or spending the best time you've had together with your partner.

The excursion could be a daylong trip or a half-day trip out to fishing villages, resorts and uninhabited desert islands. In the evenings there is a weekly disco, the popularity of which often depends on the composition of guests on the island at the time. Fishing enthusiasts could take part in some enjoyable fishing expeditions; big game fishing, trolling or night fishing, which is a relatively relaxing option. Snorkelling is quite popular in all the resorts. It is easily accessible, relaxing, and need no prior training to enjoy.
