A short boat ride to the island built as a prison and later a quarantine station — now home to a colony of giant tortoises, a beach and starfish.
Prison Island was originally built as a prison and later used as a quarantine station for yellow fever patients. Today it is a resort and home to a colony of giant tortoises from the Seychelles, known for their size and age. Enjoy the beach around the island and look for starfish in the shallows.
Lunch on the excursions costs extra — fresh seafood and vegetables, with special requests on demand. Ask us to add any excursion to your beach stay.
A boat from Stone Town to the island. Meet the giant tortoises, hear the island's history and enjoy the beach before the boat back.
