Horses and donkeys were released into the wild on the island a long time ago, so they roam freely everywhere.

We drove right across the small island, which measures 11 x 2 km. At the lighthouse we had a great view. The capital, Cockburn Town, isn't worth recommending – driving through once is enough.

On the way back we discovered a secluded beach for swimming and stopped there for a few hours. There's also a beach right by the pier, but it's more reminiscent of Mallorca and mass tourism.
