At Desroches Island, the endemic giant Aldabra tortoises (ancient, slow-moving, and utterly charming) roam and reside in a dedicated sanctuary. Families can cycle (or take a buggy) to meet them, learn about their lives, and even feed them.

For an active family vacation, surfing is a brilliant way to bond. At Desroches Island, the resort offers lessons tailored to every level, from first-timers to intermediate surfers.
3. Under the Stars – Private Stargazing Experience
After a fun-filled day of sun, surf, and adventure, there’s nothing more magical than gathering your family under the pristine night sky of the Indian Ocean.
Far from city lights, Desroches Island offers an exclusive private stargazing experience, complete with a knowledgeable guide, high-quality telescopes, and an unforgettable setting.
Discover constellations, spot planets, and create lasting memories as you explore the wonders of the universe together, an enchanting family-friendly experience at Four Seasons Resort Seychelles.
4. Picnic on the Beach – Island Dining in Paradise
After an exciting morning of adventure, there’s nothing quite like unwinding with a family picnic on the beach at Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island.
The resort’s expert team thoughtfully prepares a luxury picnic basket filled with fresh local delicacies, tropical fruits, and refreshing drinks, all carefully packed for your seaside escape.
Choose a secluded stretch of golden sand, spread out a soft blanket beneath the swaying palm trees, and watch as the kids build sandcastles or splash in the shallows.
Meanwhile, you can simply relax and listen to the gentle rhythm of the ocean. For an extra touch of indulgence, the staff can arrange cozy pillows, lanterns, and umbrellas for shade, transforming a simple picnic into a memorable island dining experience.
