Wildlife of Seychelles
Seychelles' isolated islands support distinctive palms, birds and giant tortoises. Which island you visit matters: the coco de mer grows on Praslin and Curieuse, while Aldabra has its own tortoise story.

Keep exploring Seychelles with our travel partners.
Nature visits become richer when you look for the species tied to a place. The coco de mer palm gives Praslin and Curieuse a botanical focus, and the Seychelles black parrot adds another reason to pay attention in protected forest. Aldabra giant tortoises connect the remote atoll to conservation work across the islands.
What to look for
The coco de mer palm produces an unusually large, distinctively shaped seed.
The Seychelles black parrot is a protected island bird.
Aldabra giant tortoises also live on other Seychelles islands.
