Named after the acrobatic Frégate bird, Frégate Island is a private island where no day visitors are allowed. Instead the 7 beaches, including Anse Victorin renowned as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and the 2 fresh water swimming pools are for the exclusive use of the island's guests.

Construction of the resort was subject to strict regulations to safeguard the environment, and the preservation and protection of the island's unique flora and fauna continues to be among Frégate's main priorities. The resort also supports the local community in many ways.

Together with 14 bird species, Frégate Island is also home to a wild herd of more than 400 Aldabra giant tortoises, one of only 3 wild-roaming populations left in the Seychelles. The Hawksbill turtle and green turtle, both critically endangered, are also frequent visitors to the shores of the island for nesting and egg-laying.

Frégate Island offers a host of activities on, in and under the water. Sailing and motorboats can take you to the numerous dive sites around the island and the turquoise lagoon, protected by a small reef, is particularly safe for swimmers, snorkellers and beginner divers.

If you prefer to stay ashore, there's a fully equipped gym, an extensive library and a boutique collection. You can also climb Mount Signal, with a summit of 125 metres, or enjoy a bird's-eye view of the Seychelles aboard a helicopter or a small aircraft.

Frégate has a host of beautiful locations perfect for a tropical wedding, including a traditional, intimate chapel and the summit of Mount Signal. The Castaway Club offers fun and educational activities over the Christmas and Easter periods for children aged between 5 and 12 years old and babysitters are available for younger children.

Frégate Island is a 20-minute flight from Mahé Island in the Seychelles.

In the evening, the Plantation House turns into a romantic restaurant serving traditional Creole dishes and island specialities. This historical building evokes memories of the island's past and is a wonderful venue for open-air dining.

The alternative dining venue on Frégate Island is Frégate House, where a gourmet menu features the chef's daily selection of local produce. This produce is harvested daily and the resort's chef places a firm emphasis on simplicity to maximise the food's natural goodness.

Dining is available on the lower terrace and also in the restaurant. You can also dine in the privacy of your own villa or at the Beach Bar at Anse Bambous.

Frégate Island's 16 villas are built of native mahogany and blend harmoniously into the natural surroundings. The tropical feel of the buildings is deliberately casual.

Each villa has a large terrace with a day bed and jacuzzi as an extension of the living area. The light and spacious interior houses colonial-style furniture and state-of-the-art technology.
