islands
There are two categories of islands:
the granitic "Inner" that cluster around the principal islands of Mahé, Praslin and LaDigue whose verdant peaks climb skywards from virgin forests and immaculate beaches; and the "Outer":
a sparkling array of flat, coralline islands extending westwards towards the coast of Africa that includes legendary Aldabra, the world's largest raised coral atoll.
The "Inner Islands" the cultural focal point of Seychelles where the majority of the population lives while the "Outer Islands" remain
miniature worlds, little touched by man thus offering a unique and incomparable island experience.

Outer Islands
Outer Islands
The Outer Islands are those situated beyond the Seychelles plateau. They comprise 72 low-lying sand cays and atolls lying anywhere between 230km and 1150km from Mahé. Less visited than their granitic cousins due to their relative remoteness, these pristine miniature worlds, some little more than sand spits or lonely rocky outcrops, offer untouched habitats for many species of wildlife.
Only two islands among the Outer Island groups, namely Alphonse and Desroches, currently offer accommodation facilities. They boast luxuriously appointed lodges as well as unparalleled opportunities for sailing, fishing and diving in places where few have gone before.
