Devil’s Island

Devil’s Island is one of the most popular Islands to visit among those three islands that are called as Iilet Du Salut and lies on the coast of French Guiana.

Devil’s Island is famed for its palm trees that barely rise above the sea level. It is the place where Napolean opened prison and French held their prisoners.

Numerous movies and songs have been shot here and even have become familiar in the books, which were evident in Henri Charriere’s book-Papillion.

Manaus, Brazil

This is an amazing place to visit if you really want to enjoy crazy sport like piranha fishing. The transportation available to this destination is either boat or plane.
