Socotra Eco-Tours: 8-day Tour
– Unforgettable holidays with Socotra Eco-tours

(8 Days)




Day 1: Flying to Socotra/ Ayhaft Canyon/ Adeeb eco-lodge
Upon our arrival to Socotra airport, we will take you for a trip to Ayhaft Canyon National Park. We will stop from time-to-time to take some photos of the island's characteristic xenomorphic plants. The Cucumber Tree (the only tree in the cucumber family) and the Socotran Desert Rose have adapted to periods of extreme drought and hot temperature. Their massive, swollen trunk stores water and nutrients. This deep valley (Ayhaft canyon) is narrow at the beginning, but we soon see how wide it opens up. The monsoon showers permit lush vegetation in this protected wadi. There is a beautiful seasonal river here and a natural reservoir where we can swim. In the river, endemic species of crabs watch our movements as we step across boulders in the river, and we can get close to the endemic dragonflies laying their eggs on the water. We will look for Socotra Sunbirds among the cucumber trees' branches, feeding on the nectar of its flowers. In Wadi Ayhaft we can find most of the islands' endemic birds, such as the Golden-winged Grosbeak, the only true finch on Socotra. Here we can also see a magnificent panorama of green trees, white karst formations and the blue sky with the Haggier Mountains behind.We will have our lunch under one of the big the Tamarind tree . The remainder of the afternoon will be spent here in this diverse ecosystem, before

Dinner and overnight at Adeeb eco-lodge

Day 4: Hoq cave/ Arher freshwater creek and beach
This morning, we will make an early start to drive to the base of Hoq cave in Terbak village. Before the sunshine gets too hot, we will walk up to the entrance of the Cave. It is more than 3 km long with a water pool at the end and holds a wealth of Socotri history. Inside, you will see ancient stalactites, stalagmites and crystallic formations. Ancient writings on the cave walls and also what appears to be a picture of an old trading ship have been preserved over the ages by a calcite glaze. There is also evidence to suggest that the cave was once used for ritual purposes by the presence of mysterious ‘alters’.
In the afternoon, we will trek to the North-East of the island. The rest of the day we will spend in Arher where a fresh creak coming out from a granite massive is meeting salty sea water on the beach. You can relax on green grass around the creak, swim in the sea or if you feel fit you can climb a huge sand dune to get a fantastic view over this charming spot.
Dinner and night camping in Arher.
Day 5: Homhil Protected Area/ stopover at Qaria Lagoon
Our today’s destination is Homhil, a protected area with fabulous sceneries that give you a kind of prehistoric feeling. We will stop at Qaria lagoon en-route. It is the largest lagoon on the island and we will hopefully see flamingos, herons and greenshanks.
The trek to Homhil starts at the bottom of a spectacular ravine on the sea level. The trek is of medium difficulty and won’t take more than 1,5 hours. You will have enough strength to enjoy the view back towards the sea where we have started ascending.
Once at Homhil, we can choose from a selection of walking trails. You will be astonished by the prehistoric atmosphere of the landscape rich with dragon blood trees and bottle trees. You will be addressed by local children who sell dragon blood raisin and frankincense. One of the trails leads to a viewpoint with a natural pool with almost freezing green and blue water.

Dinner and overnight at Homhil campsite.

Day 6: Dixsam/ the south, Amek sandy beach, Dagub Cave.

After breakfast, we will make our way by 4x4 vehicle to Dixsam plateau and Shebahon viewpoint.

The area is also home to the endemic and rare Socotra Bunting (estimated at 1,000 pairs). The Shebahon viewpoint gives a fabulous vista overlooking Daerhu canyon where we will see unusual yet beautiful rock formations. We will then make our way down to the wadi in the canyon for lunch and an easy-going walk and swim in the freshwater pools in the wadi camping & overnight at Diksam. In the afternoon, we travel to the south of the island, with visits to villages along the way. Our first destination is Amak beach where we can swim in the clear water of the Indian Ocean. For lunch we will go to Dagub cave, which overlooks a scattering of traditional villages below. The cave itself is of interest as there are many stalactites, stalagmites and pools of water that has seeped through the rock over time. We will then witness the colossal sand dunes of Hayf and Zahek which have been pushed up against the mountainside by the seasonal winds of Socotra. If you are feeling especially fit, you can climb the dunes for a view that is truly worth the effort.
Dinner and overnight camp at Amek beach.

We will continue to neighboring Detwah lagoon which is a marine protected area renowned for its magic landscape. You will be charmed by a white sandy tongue surrounded by turquoise waters of the bay. This surely is one of the best views on the island. You can jump in the shallow sea there and enjoy the paradise. Only be careful with sting rays that can be seen in the lagoon. There is also an array of sea birds to be seen in the lagoon. We will go for a boat trip to Shu’ab. We will surely meet some Spinner Dolphins along the way with cormorants flying over our heads. Once at Shu’ab, we can have a look at a mangrove area. We will have a lunch on the long and clean Shu’ab beach. In the afternoon, feel free to swim and enjoy this pristine place.
