A cursed island that nobody wanted to inhabit until the end of the 18th century, with the exception of the most feared corsairs of the Mediterranean, such as the Red Beard, Dragut or Cachidiablo brothers.

Join our accredited guides to learn first-hand the exciting history of this island of just 30 hectares. Only 30 hectares, which hide centuries of history and legends worthy of any pirate novel or movie.
