Mahé is the Seychelles’ largest, most developed, and most populated island – about 90% of the country lives here. It is also where visitors first meet paradise, at the international airport, as well as one of the world’s smallest capitals, Victoria, offering “urban” activities, including museums, cultural institutes, colorful markets, a tea factory and art galleries.With over 60 beautiful beaches, hidden secluded coves, waterfalls, jungles, mountains, stunning views, activities from the depths of the sea to the granite peaks, and small towns with colorful Creole culture, there is something for everyone –from the “city life” of Victoria to a private Robinson Crusoe experience.
Located in the Amirante Islands, part of the remote Outer Islands of the Seychelles, Desroches Island is a secluded tropical paradise renowned for its pristine natural beauty and exclusive luxury. Protected by a vibrant coral reef and encircled by approximately 14 kilometres of powder-soft white-sand beaches, the island offers a tranquil escape far from the crowds. Visitors can enjoy an unforgettable stay at the island’s sole resort, which provides world-class service, exceptional dining and elegant accommodation in a spectacular beachfront setting. The island’s sense of privacy and isolation makes it a favourite destination for honeymooners and luxury travellers. Guests can explore Desroches by bicycle, relax on its unspoilt beaches or discover the surrounding turquoise waters through snorkelling, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing and scuba diving. Combining exclusivity, natural beauty and outstanding hospitality, Desroches Island offers a truly idyllic Indian Ocean retreat.
