Alphonse Islands
SCALP | Seychelles | port
Alphonse Island is an authentic, unspoiled island experience in the Seychelles.
Beautiful white-sand beaches lined with palm trees mark a break between the crystal-clear waters and dense natural forest, of which both are thriving with wildlife. Bijoutier Island is a very small island that sits within the St. François Atoll.
The uninhabited land takes its name from the French word, bijoutier, meaning "jeweller" and it is indeed a land of jewels. In 2007 the Island Conservation Society established a conservation centre on Alphonse to manage conservation on both Bijoutier and Alphonse.
