Active family members can enjoy Beach Volleyball, Island Kayaking, Limbo Competitions, Twister on the Beach, and the St. François Nature Walk. Nature lovers can explore the island on the Island Tour, meet George the Tortoise, attend Conservation Talks, and participate in Beach Clean-Ups to help protect the environment. Marine enthusiasts can embark on a Blue Safari, where they snorkel in crystal-clear waters, encountering Melon-Headed Whales, Spinner Dolphins, and turtles. This Easter, guests can experience Alphonse Snorkel, Bonefish Catching, Swimming with Manta Rays, Fish ID Talk & Snorkel, and diving with the Five-Star PADI Dive Centre.

Younger family members can enjoy a Mini Farm Harvest, Corn Hole Competition at the Beach Bar, Wooden Easter Crafts, Pin The Tail on the Bunny, Bubble Art, Easter Word Scramble, and the Sandcastle Competition. Families can wind down together with Movies and Popcorn in the Theatre, including a screening of Peter Rabbit (2018), starring Domhnall Gleeson, Rose Byrne, and Margot Robbie.

Sweet treats and gastronomic delights on Alphonse Island

Easter is a time to indulge, and chocolate is a must! Guests can take part in Easter Cookie Making Classes and toast S’mores around a bonfire under the stars. For a savoury twist, Alphonse Island offers Sundowners & Tacos at the Beach Bar, a Pizza Party, and an Easter Lunch like no other.

The highlight is the Easter Flats Lunch, a unique dining experience on the vast white-sand flats, with guests dipping their toes in the warm Indian Ocean while enjoying a feast. Alphonse Island champions sustainable eating, with a farm-to-table menu using fresh ingredients harvested from the island’s on-site farm. This approach eliminates food miles while enhancing the flavour and quality of each dish.

A paradise for unforgettable Easter memories

Alphonse Island is more than an Easter getaway. It is a journey through paradise, where families reconnect, celebrate, and create lifelong memories.
