Wildlife Watching in June: A Naturalist’s Paradise (with Presidential Accommodation)
As the rest of the world begins to slow down for mid-year, Cousine Island comes alive. June is a quietly powerful time on the island — not loud or dramatic, but intimate, still, and full of life for those who know where to look. For wildlife lovers, photographers, and guests in search of meaningful connection with nature, this is the month where the island reveals its most authentic self.
The warm, dry weather and gentle trade winds make June ideal for exploration. Walk softly along forest paths and you’ll hear the rustle of giant Aldabra tortoises moving through sun-dappled clearings. Listen closely and you may catch the flutter and call of the Seychelles Fody or the rare Magpie Robin, busy nesting in the treetops. Wander to the shoreline at first light and you might find the curved tracks of a Green Sea Turtle, a reminder of the night before when she emerged to lay her eggs beneath the moonlight.
This is the kind of place where you don’t just see wildlife — you exist quietly alongside it.
A Private Front-Row Seat to the Wild
What makes Cousine truly exceptional isn’t just the wildlife — it’s the access. As a conservation island with limited guest numbers, the experience here is deeply personal. There are no crowds, no noise, and no fences. You are part of the ecosystem the moment you arrive.
For guests staying in our Presidential Suite, the wild is often just outside your door. With panoramic ocean views and complete seclusion, this suite offers not only unmatched privacy and luxury, but the kind of proximity to nature that few places can offer. Tortoises wander past your villa. Birds nest in nearby trees. Even sea turtles have been spotted from the deck.
To elevate this experience, we’ve curated two Presidential Suite packages tailored to different types of travelers who share a love for nature and luxury.
