Cousine Island

Lying six kilometres west of Praslin Island in the Seychelles, the small granitic Cousine Island is a tropical paradise of white sandy palm-fringed beaches, turquoise waters and beautiful wildlife. Visitors can explore the seas through snorkelling, diving, fishing, kayaking, and stand-up paddle boarding, or even take a catamaran trip around the island, stopping at various points for some of these activities. See pods of dolphins, majestic whale sharks gliding by and beautiful bird’s-eye views of the islands from the comfort of a helicopter. The island is also a wildlife conservation area, and allows guests to take part in several conservation activities should they wish to. Don’t miss the opportunity to spot an array of delightful birds, crabs, giant tortoises and sea turtles, and perhaps even the ‘turtle run’ of baby turtles running from their nests to the sea.
