St Brandon's L'Île Coco, Cargados Carajos.

L'Île Coco (Coco Island) is one of the largest islands by size within the St. Brandon archipelago and was permanently inhabited by fishermen until recently. It is still sometimes used as a base by a local fishing company for fly fishing and fly casting activities.

The island is inhabited by many thousands of sea birds and seasonally by turtles coming to lay their eggs.[1]
