Leave the resort for a scenic tootle across the island, where your guide will take you past lakes (speckled with exotic birdlife and sunning Nile crocodile) and platinum beaches, and through local villages amongst wild orange and cashew nut trees. As you take in the stunning island views, your guide will share its century-spanning history with you, before reaching the northernmost point, Dom Carlos. Enjoy a tasty picnic in the shade, the ocean rolling up the beach and the historic lighthouse as your backdrop. Should you fancy it, take a swim or snorkel in the water before heading back.
