Socotra Island is a remarkable place. The island feels like it's from another planet, with unique wildlife and vegetation that can't be found anywhere else on Earth. The trees on the island are twisted and bizarre, with thick trunks and stubby branches. The ground is littered with strange rocks and boulders that look like they've been placed there by someone or something. The island's geological formations are equally impressive, with massive limestone cliffs jutting out of the ground. Socotra's people are also fascinating, with a culture that's distinctly different from anything else in the world.
