Things to do
Or do nothing at all
With steady trade winds, warm turquoise waters and beautiful walking trails crisscrossing the island, Moskito Island is the perfect playground to explore both on land and on water. There’s an endless list of activities to keep you busy or to help you relax during your stay.

At the estate
There’s no need to go far to fill your time at The Branson Beach Estate. While away a relaxing afternoon with a few laps in one of three infinity pools, or simply simmer for a while in the hot tub with a glass of something chilled.
Challenge your loved ones to a little healthy competition in the games area at Headland House or The Cove. If it’s relaxation you crave, why not arrange for an in-villa spa treatment with one of our therapists?
Or, grab a good book, make for the private beach, and simply let the sound of the rushing waves be your soundtrack for the day.

On the island
If you feel like venturing beyond the estate, you’ll find plenty of delightful diversions dotted around the island.
For an action-packed day, dip into the fully equipped gym, explore the 1.5 miles of walking trails, or enjoy an energising game of tennis on one of two floodlit courts.
There are also beach BBQs, picnics and games - just perfect for making memories as a family, and a cooking masterclass to help you take a little Caribbean culinary skill home with you.

- World-class deep-sea or inshore fishing
- Snorkelling
- Paddleboarding and kayaking
- Kitesurfing and Hobie Cat sailing

Our 5 Day Itinerary
Day 1
Arrive at Moskito Island via speedboat and be greeted by the estate manager on the dock. We’ll whisk you off on one of the electric buggies so you can start exploring the estate, with a glass of bubbles in hand (naturally). Prepare for some serious indulging over the days ahead.
Day 2
Get to know your new home on a guided tour of the island, the adventurous can explore on foot via the 1.5 miles worth of walking trails. Make the most of the crystal-clear waters in the afternoon, try your hand at kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkelling or Hobie Cat sailing. Watch the sunset from your estate, before your private chef cooks up a storm.
Day 3
Kick the morning off with a friendly tennis tournament, whether you’re a beginner or a pro everyone’s welcome and spectators can watch from the comfort of the tennis pavilion. Relax on Manchioneel Beach for the rest of the afternoon before a sunset rum tasting session with the team at the Beach House.
Day 4
Take some time for yourself and work up an appetite with a swim and some snorkelling at the beach. It’s then just a short stroll to lunch at Manchioneel Beach.
Day 5
Soak up the sun in a hammock or on a sun lounger by one of the three pools at your estate. We’ll have lunch waiting for you at The Cove, along with fresh coconuts and a splash of rum if you fancy it. Finish the afternoon with a sailing race around the island on our Hobie Cats.
