Trevor looked back on it as a moment he would never forget. The motorised outrigger canoe safari had opened his eyes to a side of the Cocos Keeling Islands he had never seen before, a unique and truly memorable experience.

• The Motorised Outrigger Canoe Safari lets you explore waters that most boats are unable to go through.
• It’s a fantastic opportunity to learn about the history and environment of the Cocos Islands.
• The Safari stops at several remote and uninhabited islands, including Pulu Maraya, Pulu Blan and Pulu Blan Madar.
• Pulu Maraya is a great spot to go snorkelling, with pristine reefs and an abundance of marine life.
• Discover the islands’ incredible wildlife at Pulu Blan, which is home to the endangered blue-tailed skink.
• Pulu Blan Madar is the final stop on the tour, where you can enjoy some refreshments before returning.
