Desroches

Ample space, flat paths, and long stretches of beach create a feeling of arrival. The island belongs to the Amirantes group and, as a coral island, is an integral part of the Seychelles' geographical structure.

Plenty of space, flat paths, and long stretches of beach create a feeling of arrival. Walking barefoot is part of everyday life here. The pace of life remains calm. Your gaze is almost always directed towards the sea.

The coral island lies in the Amirantes group and is accessible via its own airstrip. Palm trees and casuarinas line the roads. Beaches stretch almost the entire length of the coast. The short flight time from Mahé makes the destination relatively easy to plan a trip, yet still secluded. This combination is precisely what distinguishes it from other Outer Islands.

What you should plan carefully here

  • Explore small stretches of beach by bike.
  • Snorkeling in coastal reef zones.
  • Evenings with peace and quiet, starry skies and little distraction.

In your guide, this place represents a conscious change. First, diversity and activity on the main islands. Then, vastness, beaches, and clear structure.
