Whales migrate past the island in Winter (July-September) and turtles nest in Summer (November-February). The accommodation is for adults only.
Svendsens Beach can accommodate a maximum of 10 adults in the two luxury tent-bungalows, the newly appointed studio and the rental house. The tents and studio form one small cluster, where up to three couples can share, whereas the house is completely separate and self-contained.
