Frégate Island Seychelles

Frégate Island Private offers a unique island experience, exotic, exclusive and isolated!! Words fail to describe this incredible private island, only 20 minutes by helicopter from Mahé.

The French explorer Lazare Picault, who discovered the island in 1744, was so impressed by the flying abilities of the local fregate bird that he named the island after him. Over 250 years later, Frégate is truly a "unique island experience"

Standing on a granite Glacis on the northern side of the Seychelles, Frégate Island has been built in an architectural style combining design influences from the Seychellois as well as from Bali and Thailand. Back in the 19th Century, a British Governor once described the location of the Seychelles as being "a thousand miles away from the rest of the world". Today, guests staying on Frégate Island Private have the feeling that they are worlds away from mass tourism and the daily stress of their hectic lifestyles.

The 16 exclusive, Frégate Island private villas nestle harmoniously in their surroundings and are arranged to offer privacy. 14 are situated in a spectacular position above the fine sandy beaches, and 2 are located in a sheltered grassy position, for families with children.

Frégate is an island for those individuals seeking privacy and tranquility rather than a wild and exciting nightlife. Located in the midst of the Indian Ocean, the approximately three square kilometre island offers guests seven dream beaches, crystal clear water, sunshine and flora and fauna unparalleled in the world. Despite the island's proximity to the International Airport, which is approximately 60 kilometres away, only a few tourists find their way to the small and private paradise on the eastern side of the islands.

The water sports programme is well developed and far-reaching, and the island even has its own marina with an entire fleet of sailing craft, as well as deep sea fishing vessels and scuba diving.

For the past eleven years, a highly successful ecological programme has been operational with the focus on conservation. Guests are encouraged to share in the unique experience. For example, the island's 'adopt a tortoise' programme is focussed on saving juvenile Aldabra Giant Tortoises and a contribution of 100 Euros helps towards this as well as towards other endangered species, including the island's mascot - the Seychelles Magpie Robin. In the waters around Frégate Island Private, it is not uncommon for divers to encounter whale shark and dolphins during the diving season.

This has to be one of the best islands in the Indian Ocean!
