Travel fantasy: Rock Restaurant

Wow, how's this for a travel fantasy: The Rock Restaurant is an amazing seafood shack perched on a rock in the Indian Ocean. Depending on the tide, you either walk, swim or row a boat to it!

Who's game?

P.S. More dream vacations...

  23. When I was in Bocas del Toro, Panama, a couple of years ago, we ate at a place run by two fisherman.

    You call them in the morning, they go out and catch your dinner (lobster or fish are your two options!) then that evening they pick you up on their boat and take you to their own private island where they prepare the day's catch! So awesome.

  48. Why does it remind me of Harry Potter?

    ReplyDelete
  49. Holy crap! What about the people that work there? Must they swim to work? And the food! How to they ship bucket loads of food to the restaurant? What about electricity? As a customer... I'm intrigued and would totally give this a go. As an owner... this sounds like a major pain in the butt!

  54. I've been to Zanzibar (while I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Kenya) but I did not get to experience this... amazing! The tide in Zanzibar was insane! During low tide you could walk for hours and never get to more than 4in of water!

  64. My mum and I went to Zanzibar (where this amazing Rock restaurant is) when I was 17 while we were backpacking through Africa...and my mum met her future husband on Zanzibar! My mum, step-dad, and little brother now take turns living in Brisbane & Zanzibar...

    I am from Australia which is heavenly and has the most amazing beaches in the world, BUT Zanzibar is definitely heaven on Earth! Not just spectacular natural beauty, but the architecture & ruins & beautiful friendly people and the amazing culture and history! It is a photographer's dream. If you visit, be sure to head up to the North-West tip of the island to a place called Kendwa Rocks (my step-dad's home and it is HEAVEN).

    You MUST go there!

  84. At the moment I’m doing this space movie, so I’m obsessed with physics and space travel. I know three months down the line it’s gone. Then I’ll be able to superficially say stuff about space.
