Lying within a Marine National Park, Silhoutte's main attraction may be its huge diversity of plants and animals. In fact, ecologists see it as one of the most important hotspots of the Indian Ocean.

Silhouette lies about 20km from Mahé to the north-west and can only be reached by helicopter. Largely undeveloped, it has no roads whatsoever and its forest trails will take you through untouched virgin vegetation.

The island does have a small settlement called La Passe, but there are only about 130 permanent inhabitants. The other inhabitants of Silhouette include giant tortoises for which a captive breeding programme has been started. There are several beautiful palm-fringed beaches - usually deserted - but only one hotel, Labriz Silhouette.
