A small, uninhabited coral island located southwest of the main island of Mahe, the Astove Atoll is a picturesque paradise that forms part of the Aldabra Group in the Outer Islands of Seychelles. A clear, aquamarine ocean surrounds a lush landscape fringed by post-carded perfect beaches, and beneath the waves lies an underwater wonderland filled with exotic marine creatures and untouched coral reefs captured in the world-famous documentary 'The Silent World' by renowned ocean explorer Jacques Cousteau. The Astove Wall is the island's undisputed highlight, where a dramatic 90-degree drop creates the perfect dive site often described as looking down into the Grand Canyon. The Astove Atoll is one of the world's leading saltwater fly fishing destinations and hosts a massive variety of species, including bonefish, dogtooth, triggerfish, barracuda, milkfish, and yellowfin tuna.
