REAL-LIFE SHIPWRECKED EXPERIENCE

THE THOUGHT OF BECOMING shipwrecked on a remote destination would fill most holidaymakers with dread. But one holiday company offers would-be castaways the chance to become real-life Robinson Crusoes - on their own DESERTED ISLAND. For 1.200 euros, you can swap squabbling over deckchairs on the Costa Del Sol for a week in the company of monitor lizards, wild pigs and monkeys on your choice of remote tropical islands in Indonesia, the Philippines, as well as the Caribbean and Africa. Equipped with fishing lines, machetes, and even provide spear guns for underwater fishing, intrepid guests can catch and cook their own food, as well as build their own shelters…
