ISLANDS Magazine Cover Photo: Guess the Island

Jon Whittle has traveled the world for years shooting for ISLANDS magazine. Yet on a recent trip, he knew he got the perfect shot for an ISLANDS cover. (This spectacular photo appears on the June 2012 issue, which you can get now in the ISLANDS magazine iPad app in the App Store.) Below is Jon's story behind the photo, which he did as part of his feature story assignment for "The Ageless Island," appearing in that same issue. See if you can guess the island where he took this photo.
"This was at Seychelles Beach on this particular island. It was a cool day and the water was much colder. I parked and went down a poorly marked path to the water. I waded off the beach military style, with my camera gear held over my head, and climbed up on a rock overlooking this little beach. This place is exactly how it looks in this photo. I saw this and immediately started finding negative space where we could put the ISLANDS logo and cover blurbs, and framed it all vertical. You don't find covers; covers find you."
