Scattered across the Indian Ocean north-east of Madagascar, Seychelles is an archipelago of 115 granite and coral islands known for its clear turquoise waters, dense tropical forests and striking granite boulders. The atmosphere is relaxed and intimate, balancing barefoot luxury with a strong sense of nature and island life. Visitors can snorkel vibrant coral reefs, sail between islands, explore the lush trails of Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve or encounter giant Aldabra tortoises and nesting sea turtles in protected habitats. Creole culture, fresh seafood and colourful markets add to the islands’ appeal, while quiet beaches shaded by takamaka trees offer a slower pace best suited to travellers seeking scenery, seclusion and time outdoors.
Situated in beautiful Seychelles, Fregate Island (also referred to as Fregate Island Private) is fringed with world-famous white-powder sandy beaches and offers crystal-clear turquoise waters. The island is scattered with indigenous forest, hundreds of tropical birds, over 2000 Giant Aldabra Tortoises, and hundreds of endangered Hawksbill Turtles. Fregate features a private inland harbour, as well as a yacht club and PADI dive centre. Visitors can enjoy a variety of wonderful activities including excellent diving and snorkelling, sampling exotic local cuisine, enjoying a romantic dinner in a treehouse in the island’s oldest banyan tree, and soaking up the picturesque scenery of this tropical paradise.
