Little Corn Island

What makes so special little Corn Island are its splendid coral reef systems which shelter plentiful rich marine life with all different species of colorful tropical fish, sponges, school of snappers and other interesting underwater biodiversity. Its deep azure waters also hides marvelous big game, bringing excitement to each brave anglers, which talent is enthusiastically proven in the attempt to catch barracudas, mackerels, morays, stingrays, sailfish, tunas, sword fish, tarpons and other spectacular fish.
No doubt Little Corn Island, sited at about 18 kilometers ( around 11 miles ) northwest of Big Corn Island and only reachable, starting from Big Corn Island, by boat, is the ideal place to relax and let time goes by. The size of the island is almost three square kilometers with a population of approximately 800 people, most of them Creoles. The island, surrounded by incredible turquoise water, is an oasis of peace, no T.V, no cars, no cell phones, no worries, no hurries just peace of mind.
