Recreation

If you are seeking to do more than just soak up the sun on one of the magnificent beaches, the island boasts numerous activities to give you a memorable touch of adventure in paradise.

Fishing aficionados the world over are familiar with Denis Island’s reputation for year-round fishing in an area of the Indian ocean that yields an abundance of fish. Experience the thrill of a fishing charter with an experienced crew using state-of-the-art equipment. The local art of bottom-fishing or ‘palangrotte’ is a firm favourite with bone-fishing off the island’s flats also increasing in popularity.

The resort enjoys the facility of an on-site dive centre with PADI accreditation offering courses for novice and advanced divers alike. The protected underwater world around the resort ranks as one of the finest areas for diving in the Seychelles and features a number of dive sites allowing sightings of turtles, sharks, sting rays, sailfish, tuna and dolphins, with whale sharks and manta rays often sighted from September to November.

Sailing, windsurfing and canoeing are also possible, while those with a preference for terrestrial activities will enjoy hiking the island’s meandering pathways and the guided nature walks that explore the rich flora and fauna.
