One of the world’s largest coral atolls and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Aldabra is a remote and pristine wilderness in the far southern Seychelles. Home to giant tortoises and extraordinary marine life, it is a place of almost untouched natural splendour, one of the last truly wild corners of the Indian Ocean.
Reaching this remote atoll is a genuine expedition, rewarded by a vast turquoise lagoon, pristine reefs and an abundance of wildlife found nowhere else. The atoll is famous for its population of giant tortoises, which number in the tens of thousands and roam free, alongside nesting turtles, seabird colonies and rich marine life.
Aldabra’s protected waters offer some of the most pristine diving and snorkelling in the world, with vibrant reefs, dramatic channels and abundant sea life in crystal-clear water. Its remoteness and protection have preserved a natural paradise of global significance.
Ashore, there is little but untouched wilderness and a research station, offering a rare and profound experience of nature at its wildest. Its beauty is exceptional.
With its giant tortoises, pristine lagoon and vibrant reefs, Aldabra is a natural wonder of the Indian Ocean. Guests can explore one of the largest and most pristine atolls on earth, encounter extraordinary wildlife and experience a genuine and unforgettable expedition into the wild.
