The 19 islands, 13 major and 6 smaller, each originating from undersea volcanoes that erupted over 600 million years ago. What is left behind is a rugged and curious landscape, teeming with wildlife which is ideal for exploring on foot
A certain highlight of these magical islands is going snorkelling. Once in you will find seals doing somersaults, inquisitive hammerhead sharks circling below and tortoises walking on the bottom beneath you
Although not strictly a beach destination in its own right, the islands contain some stunning beautiful beaches. You won’t be sunbathing though as they are home to a number of different mammals, which you have to concentrate not to step on!
