Curieuse Island
As part of the Marine Park the island is strictly protected and only a few families live there. Like Praslin, Curieuse is home to the Coco-de-mer palm. The island has a wild population of about 250 giant tortoises, brought over from Aldabra in the 1980s and a breeding scheme has been in place there for several years. Curieuse was once a leper colony, and the ruins of the houses can still be seen. There is also a large, restored colonial villa, known as the Doctor’s House, where the island doctor lived in the 1870s. Nature trails wind their way across the island, notably through the extensive swamps, home to eight different species of mangrove.
Ste Anne Island
Ste. Anne Island forms part of the Sainte Anne Marine National Park, the oldest protected ocean region of the Seychelles Archipelago. The island’s diverse flora & fauna may be discovered on its network of hiking trails while the wonders beneath the waves can be enjoyed on diving and snorkelling expeditions. The island’s coral reefs and beds of seaweed are home to numerous species and you may even be treated to sightings of sea turtles and dolphins.
