We can arrange private transportation from Big Corn Airport to The Lighthouse on Little Corn island for additional costs.

Travel Insurance Recommendation

We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance to cover any delays and hotel expenses. As Little Corn Island’s hotels are small businesses, last-minute cancellations can have a negative impact. Please note, the boat crossing is weather-dependent and may be canceled due to rough conditions. The ride can be bumpy and wet, so be prepared. In case of delays, the hotel will not cover any expenses. For peace of mind, make sure your insurance includes coverage for weather-related interruptions.
