Fisherman On Socotra Island Holding His Catch

This fisherman stands in the shallow surf on a beach on Socotra island proudly holding up his morning catch of fish. Socotra island, often referred to as the "Galapagos of the Indian Ocean" is a small, rugged tropical island with pristine white sand beaches, breathtaking mountain vistas, deep canyons and warm and friendly people. Socotra is also home to the famed Dragon Blood Trees with sap as red as blood and with fabled healing and cosmetic properties (not to mention being used in violin varnish). There are also Bottle trees, fat and cherubic, growing from the volcanic rocks and cliff faces.

The Perfect Vacation

Socotra can make for a perfect vacation if you are looking to get away from it all and relax. There are no big hotels and no expensive, fancy restaurants. You can sleep in thatched huts on the beach, or in tents in the mountains. Your dinner is likely to be fresh fish purchased from the fisherman who caught it. Don't plan on using the Internet, and for that matter, electricity too can be in short supply. But you will be able to get away from it all and recharge those internal batteries!

Adventure Travel And Socotra Island

Adventure travel on Socotra island is the way to go! If you are a photographer you will experience some incredible scenery that you literally cannot get anywhere else in the world, like Dragon Blood trees on the edge of steep canyons, or fat Bottle trees blossoming on sheer cliff faces. Just make sure you bring plenty of batteries!
