Dotting the Indian Ocean and forming part of the Outer Islands of Seychelles, the Cosmoledo Atoll is a remote and well-preserved raised coral atoll within convenient proximity of the World Heritage Site of Aldabra. The atoll is one of the last conservation areas in this part of the world and is famous for its sand dunes, expansive flats, mangroves, grasslands, and a gorgeous fluctuating lagoon, as well as for being an Important Bird Area and an excellent fishing destination. It is home to one of the largest colonies of booby, as well as bluefin trevally, bohar snapper, barracuda, milkfish, and an array of triggerfish. The exquisite powdery beaches here are nesting grounds for Hawksbills and Green Turtles.
