The Story of Cousine Island

Our Family-Loved Island

Once exploited, Cousine Island is now a family eden for a multiplicity of plant & animal species thriving in harmony.

Cousine Island is one of the few granitic islands in the world that is completely free from species that historically threatened her delicate ecosystem. She once suffered from unsustainable exploitation of her precious resources, but has since been rehabilitated and protected, which allowed for the reintroduction of multiple native species. Cousine Island is doing her part to conserve and protect the floral and faunal biodiversity of the Seychelles.

Yet the island is so much more. It is an enriching experience for anyone who visits her whispering shores that are now thriving in harmony with indigenous life. A tranquil space where one can get in touch with your soul, Cousine Island offers a warm, intimate down to earth paradise home for friends and family – a secluded nature haven bursting with hidden jewels to be discovered by wanderlust travelers & explorers seeking the meaning of life and all that is.
