The last paradise on earth is located in the Indian
Ocean and bears the name “Maldives”: an archipelago of almost 1,200
coral islands, of which only about two hundred are inhabited. The total
package of features of real Bounty Islands are plentiful: dazzling white
beaches, endless blue skies, palm trees, coral reefs that the crystal
clear water a turquoise color and cause sea-gardens full of colorful
fish, shells and other life.

The Cocoa Island Maldives
The Maldives seem a bit like an over-the-top parody of
an island holiday destination,not an Island or archipelago,but an atoll
of a thhout Robinson Crusoe-sized islands,in the shallow water of a
coral reef in the Indian Ocean. Cocoa Island is one of the these,just a
ten minute walk from end to end(and two minutes across),with absolutely
nothing on it but the hotel.All of *Cocoa Island's suite's and villas
are over the water in the form of dhomi,a traditional fishing boat,with a
short out the back door,leading from a tiny balcony straight down into
the oceans shallow waters.The "boats" are firmly moored to the sea
floor,as you can see at the low tide,but at night tide the gentle waters
lap against the edge of the balcony. The view from the bed,through
large french windows,is nothing but calm and unbroken Indian Ocean as
far as the eye can see.
