About island
Socotra
The Socotra Archipelago stands as an unparalleled and exceptional destination, representing one of the untouched gems of our world. This cluster of islands, nestled in the Indian Ocean just south of mainland Yemen, remains largely unfamiliar to the average tourist. Over countless millennia of isolation from the mainland, a distinctive array of flora and fauna has flourished here. Certain plant and animal species on Socotra exist nowhere else on our vast planet, thus earning the archipelago the moniker “The Galapagos of the Indian Ocean.” Within this realm, you’ll encounter ethereal botanical wonders like the dragon’s blood tree, the desert rose, and the frankincense tree. Exploring Socotra through the lens of Socotra Tours guarantees every visitor an exceptionally unique and unforgettable experience
How to get there
After the revival of the commercial air route to Socotra, the link between ABU DHABI and SOCOTRA has achieved complete dependability, reestablishing tourism on the island. Presently, you have the opportunity to access Socotra through a non-stop, direct flight departing from Abu Dhabi every Tuesday, providing a weekly option for travel . This flight operates under a government charter, and online booking services are not yet available. Consequently, securing a seat on this highly sought-after flight requires assistance from a local agency. To simplify this procedure, we leverage our local connections to facilitate your flight reservations
