Our hosts are expert anglers and the destination is a fishing enthusiast's delight

Yoga in the lawn, hammocks amongst chickoo trees are appended with clean toilets and showers giving camp feel of second home.

Our common areas have games and puzzles, and the thrill of playing "Jenga", "Taboo" or "Scrabble" in the outdoors is a must-experience. Plan some reading, sketching or other do it yourself activity ideas and enrich your experience.

Showers and WCs are common to campers. These are well maintained to suit urban standards.

Easy Adventures offers a range of activities around camp. Some of these activities are free for our campers and some chargeable but all of them are worth the indulgence. Give your self to the experience and you'll find something within!

Fishing

Indulge in rod and trap fishing in the day and lobster fishing at night on the house. Consider this our contribution to your fishing endeavor. Make the effort to get into the activity and our instructors will ensure an authentic experience!

To complete your fishing expedition, we will plate your catch for a nominal additional fee!
