You can't get lost here. The trip around the island is about 90 km long and it is a very pleasant experience. You can get around it in less than 2 hours, but if you set aside a day for this trip, you will not regret it. The reward will be a number of explored corners, various beaches, beautiful views and a lot of amazing photos in your camera, which you will be happy to view even after years.
