Island Escapade: A Day of Bliss on Ile aux 2 Cocos
When the allure of a private island adventure with a BBQ buffet and unlimited drinks called, I couldn’t resist. Join me as I explore the stunning Ile aux 2 Cocos, where relaxation and adventure await.
Setting Sail to Paradise
As a former professional surfer, I’ve spent countless hours riding the waves and exploring the hidden gems of the Caribbean. But when I heard about the Ile aux 2 Cocos Adventure, I knew I had to experience it for myself. The promise of a full day on a private island, complete with a BBQ buffet and unlimited drinks, was too tempting to resist.
The journey began with a boat ride from Blue Bay, a place that already holds a special spot in my heart. The anticipation built as the island came into view, a jewel in the turquoise ocean. The staff greeted us with warm smiles and a signature cocktail, setting the tone for a day of relaxation and adventure.
Island Bliss and Ocean Adventures
The island itself is a paradise, with sandy white beaches and a villa that feels like a step back in time. Built in the 1920s by the British Governor of Mauritius, the villa has been lovingly restored, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. But it was the ocean that called to me, and I couldn’t resist diving into the clear waters.
Snorkeling in the Blue Bay Marine Reserve was a highlight of the day. The vibrant coral and colorful fish were a reminder of why I fell in love with the ocean in the first place. For those who prefer to stay dry, a glass-bottom boat offers a window into this underwater world.
Feasting and Fun
After a morning of exploration, the BBQ buffet was a feast for the senses. The aroma of grilled meats and fresh seafood filled the air, and the selection of local rums added a delightful twist to the meal. The staff’s attention to detail made the dining experience truly special.
The island offers a variety of activities, from beach volleyball to giant chess, ensuring there’s something for everyone. But for me, the simple pleasure of lounging on the beach with a cold drink in hand was the perfect way to end the day.
The Ile aux 2 Cocos Adventure is more than just a day trip; it’s a chance to escape the everyday and immerse yourself in the beauty of island life. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or a first-time visitor, this adventure is not to be missed.
