Did You Know?
The Seychelles are among the oldest oceanic islands on Earth, formed over 65–75 million years ago after breaking away from the ancient supercontinent Gondwana. This long geological isolation is what makes them so unique today. Unlike most tropical islands formed by volcanic activity or coral buildup, the inner islands of Seychelles are made of ancient granite rock—some of the oldest exposed granite formations in the world.
The Seychelles is made up of 115 islands spread across the Indian Ocean and is one of the world’s smallest countries by population. It is also a global biodiversity hotspot, home to rare species found nowhere else on Earth, including giant tortoises, unique palm trees such as the coco de mer, and some of the most protected marine ecosystems in the world.

Anchor overnight at Baie St. Anne.
Did You Know?
The Vallée de Mai is often referred to as the “Garden of Eden” and is one of the only places in the world where the rare coco de mer palm grows naturally in its original forest ecosystem.
