No island getaway would be complete without the iconic Mini Moke.

A Mini Moke is a popular rental in tropical countries. It is a small, retro looking, convertible sure to awaken the wanderlust in anyone. The Mini Moke is a popular vehicle in tropical countries and islands due to the look and the roads of these countries.

The car was built in the mid 1960’s, originally meant for the military but due to its lack of off roading ability and fashionable look, soon became and island favourite.

The Mini Moke provides a stylish mode of transportation and the perfect subject of any Instagram photo, so grab your friends and camera and get ready to explore these five tropical paradises in a Mini Moke.

Seychelles

Seychelles is a tropical paradise laying in the Indian Ocean off of east Africa. The country is comprised of 115 islands boasting white sand beaches surrounded by the never ending crystal blue waters of the ocean.

The largest and one of the most visited islands is Mahé. This island is where you’ll find the capital of Seychelles, Victoria, towns to visit and a national park to visit - which will be your first stop in your Mini Moke.

Morne Seychellois National Park is home to sea life and mountain life. Drive your Mini Moke through the national park and stop for a short day hike at Morne Blanc to capture stunning views of the island and ocean below.

Your next stop will be the Sir Selwyn Selwyn Clarke Market in Victoria. Park your Mini Moke next to the bright shops and cars of the island and load it up with local fare, fruits, and snacks to bring to your next destination, Port Launay to soak up the sun, indulge in your new favourite Seychelles foods, and snorkel with the marine life.

Sotogrande

Not really an island, but a residential and visitors resort in Andalucia, along the southern coast of Spain offers Mini Moke adventures along their palm tree lined streets and coastal beaches.

Within the resorts limits you can take your Mini Moke through the villa villages, taking pictures outside of the most picturesque architecture and homes in Spain.

After you’ve loaded up on some luxury villa photos, head over to a Polo tournament in your Mini Moke to really take in the feel and culture of this resort.

Once you’ve finished watching the Polo match, head off the resort grounds and take the short road trip to Marbella to experience the night life in the Costa Del Sol.

Barbados

The Caribbean island of Barbados is a popular Mini Moke exploration destination due to the vibrant island life matched with the pristine beaches.

Barbados is filled with activities to do while driving in your Mini Moke. A great start to the day is visiting Hunte’s Garden so you can have a photo shoot outside in your car and then inside the gardens among their array of flowers and plants. After the garden, cool off at one of the many, word class, beaches the island has to offer. A visitors favourite is Pebble Beach in Carlisle Bay.

Finish your day in St. Lawrence Gap, a lively and brightly coloured street strip filled with restaurants, shops, and some great nightlife.

Mauritius

An African country known for is lush forestry and beaches along the Indian Ocean, Mauritius is the perfect Mini Moke photoshoot.

Mauritius prides itself on sustainability and eco-tourism, urging its visitors to get outside and encourages conservation and sustainability education through their tours.

You can escape the hustle and bustle of the city life by exploring the Pamplemousses Botanical Garden. Here you can explore the plant life of the country and even visit some tortoises.

Once you finish your day or green tourism, head over to the city and grad some local street food, a must for anyone visiting Mauritius! Chow down on some local food while taking some scenic pictures on the hood of your Mini Moke.

Bequia

Bequia is a secluded, Caribbean, tropical paradise that can be traversed in a Mini Moke.

The island is full of outdoor adventures between its beaches and hotels.

Start your day in the quaint capital, Port Elizabeth, amongst the colourful buildings and sipping some coffee from a local cafe. Purchase some fruit from the locals then start your ascent to Mt. Pleasant, drive your Mini Moke all the way for extraordinary views of Admiralty Bay and the southern Grenadine islands - Mustique for example.

After taking in gorgeous views of sea, head back down and cool off at Jack’s Beach Bar on Princess Margaret Beach. Sip on some Soursop Coladas and enjoy the sunset before heading back off in your Mini Moke.
