Moving around different locations on the island looking out for solitary settings, visitors’ bodies will be painted with colored earth pigments, using different accessories that symbolize the island’s culture. Photographs may be taken with the tourist’s own camera or one belonging to the guides, who will later download the photo (for an additional fee). Taking along a bathing suit is recommended.
