The island’s accolades read like a list of superlatives: it is a UNESCO World Heritage Sight, nominated as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, and designated a Wetland of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention.
The beauty of Cocos Island has inspired man for centuries. It has been called “the most beautiful island in the world” by Jacques Cousteau and served as inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island and Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park.
Today the island is known as a rich, natural resource, but it was once considered rich for another reason: pirate booty.
