• Sunrise Sunset Point is a rocky peninsula on the northwest corner of the island, near Saint Martin's Resort, which exists only at low tide  a popular spot if sunset and low tide coincide.

• Village life is slow paced  most work happens in the morning and evening, while midday is reserved for drying fish and rice and selling your coconuts.more likely, sitting in the shade chewing paan.

• There's a Sea Turtle Hatchery on the west side of the island south of Shemana Pereye Resort. It's not officially open to visitors, but it's usually empty and the gate unlocked. If it's the right season there will be several bamboo cages in the sand with eggs buried under them  not much to see, but it's nice to know that good work is being done.

• Stars are amazingly plentiful on a moonless night, due to the lack of electricity on the island.
• Rock Beach, Dhakinmat. The southern point of the Island has a millions of years old Rock formed from Coral. The area is popular as Rock Beach and can be visited on foot. A 10-15 minutes track can be explored within the area by taking permission from the local land owners to see wild life including lizard, migratory birds and unique sweet water turtles habitat.
