Discovering nature and traditions at the Lighthouse


There’s a lot to discover around the Lighthouse Beach Lodge! Lot of time to run on the beach, swim and play in the Ocean… but today we want to talk about small but fun explorations that your kids will enjoy for sure - and the holidays will be unforgettable also for them.


Have you ever tasted fresh honey?

When it’s dark, then it’s time to look for it. You can sit in the middle bush and look at four branches that lay on the ground, burning a little, and the small flare made of palm leaves that the watchman bring further and further into the buzzing hole. The prize, later, will be sweet!

Like hunters in the bush

With a spear in your hand, four dogs and a local hunter, you can walk into the bush. Dogs chasing the scent, and while the excited hunters trying to keep up, the high screams from the little unpredictable animal sounds towards you.

Reptiles in the sun

Some hours off to a cliff where the sun is burning, with a machete in your hand. The experienced watchman will present you the reptiles sleeping in the warm sun. So much to learn!

Preparing local nuts’ snacks

On the burning fire, women take out the burning pieces and throw sand over the coal-black nuts to cool them. Then they begin the big job of taking off the outer shell, the size of two thumbs, and peel them out of the thin membrane that protects the nut inside.

You can see and learn… then, it's your turn!
