Description:
The small island of Bird Island is only about a 30-minute flight north of Mahé, making it the northernmost island in the Seychelles. Surrounded by crystal-clear water and endless beaches, the small coral island is unsurpassed in its naturalness. While the Inner Islands of the Seychelles are granitic in origin, Bird Island belongs to the coral Outer Islands of the Seychelles. This is what makes it so different from the large islands in the centre of the archipelago.
The individual villas are nestled in the gardens of a former coconut plantation and today offer guests very comfortable and spacious accommodation. The traditional architecture preserves the informal atmosphere of the original island life. From May to October, millions of sooty tern colonies nest on one part of the island. With a year-round population of at least 20 different species, Bird Island is a true paradise for ornithologists. Another wonder of nature are the sea turtles, which still lay their eggs here undisturbed. A special inhabitant of Bird Island is Esmeralda. Not only is she the largest land turtle in the world, but according to myth she was born in 1771 and would therefore have a whopping 250 years under her belt. However, it is more likely that Esmeralda is "only" 90 years old.
The Bird Island Private Villas are not a luxury hotel, but are committed to particularly pronounced conservation measures and live the natural balance between man and nature to an extent that is unparalleled even in the Seychelles. The entire staff is happy to show and explain the natural secrets of Bird Island and the surrounding underwater world to interested guests. The price of accommodation is justified by the unique nature in which one is allowed to live here.
Due to its location on the edge of the "Seychelles Bank", Bird Island offers excellent opportunities for various water sports, such as snorkelling or kayaking. Fly fishing is also possible from the beach with your own equipment.

Facility is clean and well-kept, staff friendly and very open. Bungalow with open beams (allows the birds to fly through ;-)), mosquito nets, ceiling fan Food: breakfast sparse, toasts counted (2 pieces per person, no supplement possible), not varied ..... lunch / evening buffet: very tasty , plentiful, varied Casual atmosphere, pleasant lounge area in the main house Unfortunately no shop, therefore no souvenirs from Bird Island :( The beach on the east side of the island is completely covered with seaweed. Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
Always equal to itself Bird Island will delight lovers of calm and simplicity. The beaches are superb and empty and turtles are waiting for you. Only downside mosquitoes ... just protect yourself properly Translation (FR): GoogleTranslate
