This little island, actually not more than a rock formation, is called Île Saint-Pierre and belongs to the Outer Islands District of the Seychelles. It’s very popular with day tourists coming by boat from Praslin Island for snorkeling trips and is one of the most photographed spots on the Seychelles.
St. Pierre is just one of the many small islands in the Côte d’Or bay on Praslin’s north-west coast. This tiny, 5,000 square-meter island lies about 1.5 km away from the beach of Anse Volbert.
The granite rock that towers out of the turquoise sea, with its small palm crown, epitomises the Seychelles perfectly. St. Pierre is popular with snorkelers and sailors, and you can also swim here if you like. Almost every boat trip from the neighbouring island of Praslin finishes its tour with a snorkeling excursion here. In addition to countless colourful reef fish, you will also likely see sea turtles here, while, high above the island, white-tailed tropical birds fly around, surveying the area.
