Less visited than their granitic cousins, the pristine miniature worlds of the Seychelles' outer islands, offer untouched habitats for many species of wildlife and unparalleled opportunities for sailing, fishing and diving in places where few have gone before. The most northern island in the Seychelles, Bird Island, is a fascinating slice of paradise that is home to populations of tropical birds and an extraordinarily rich marine life, including Hawksbill and Green turtles, dolphins and even the occasional whale - perfect for nature lovers. 45km from Bird Island, Denis Island was a plantation during the heyday of the coconut industry and is now an exclusive private island retreat featuring 5 Star lodges, gourmet cuisine and excellent facilities, ideal for a blissful romantic escape.
