What is there to do on Ons Island?

It’s easy to be mistaken in thinking that Ons Island was created simply as an escape from all the stress of the modern world. Whilst most tourist destinations are littered with bars, clubs and bustling streets, many visitors to Ons Island will have the long stretch of glorious coastline all to themselves. The beaches are relatively small and don’t lend themselves to hours of sunbathing, but there lies the beauty – the landscape and environment is unlike any other around the world. There are few shops or restaurants on the island, so all the entertainment is to be found in the great outdoors. Embark on the copious walking trails, or just relax and admire the breathtaking terrain that engulfs Ons Island. Most visitors only stay for a day due to the lack of amenities, but for a tranquil haven away from the hassles of reality, Ons Island is perfect.
