A Place That Will Amaze Even The Experts ✨

	1.	Over 30% of its plant life exists nowhere else
Including the otherworldly dragon’s blood tree 🌳 — its red sap once treasured by Roman healers.
	
2.	“Socotra” comes from Sanskrit, meaning “Island of Bliss”
It fits. There’s an unspoken quality here that stays with you long after you leave 🌅

	3.	Around 50,000 people speak Soqotri
A language passed down for centuries — not written, but lived, in every conversation 🗣️

	4.	Frankincense and myrrh are still gathered in the old way
Sustainably, from the same trees that have been giving for thousands of years 🌿

	5.	It’s a UNESCO World Heritage site, but its future is fragile
Socotra is a rare gem — both in its landscape and culture — one that needs thoughtful care and attention 🛡️

Ready to experience the Island of Bliss?
Take the first step and start planning your journey.
