Overview

This tour stands out by blending wildlife, history, and island escape into one compact adventure. Few experiences offer the chance to encounter rare Aldabra tortoises up close while also exploring the island’s historic prison ruins and colonial-era quarantine station. With time to snorkel colorful reefs and unwind on a scenic beach, Prison Island offers more than a quick visit—it’s a well-rounded experience that appeals to history buffs, nature lovers, and those simply looking to relax in a stunning setting.
