Bird Island Lodge
Premier
Overview
Bird Island not unsurprisingly is a bird sanctuary just 1500m long and 650m wide. It is one of the inner islands of the Seychelles accessed via a 30 minute flight to the island. Flights are restricted to guests of Bird Island Lodge ensuring maximum privacy. It is best known for the 1.5 million sooty terns which nest, breed and hatch their eggs from May to October.
Bird Island Lodge is a simple beach lodge offering 24 cottages nestled among palms between the airstrip and the bird colony, with the beach just a few paces away. Each is 65 sqm in size and has a king bed, shower, lounge and a terrace overlooking the garden and the sea. The lodge's central facilities include restaurant, lounge with billiards and table tennis and small library.
Snorkelling and deep-sea fishing occupy your time when you are not out bird watching or lazing on the beaches. Bird Island is an ideal eco-tourism destination and there are two major attractions here: the Sooty Tern conservation project (May to October) and the Hawksbill Turtle project (mid September to February) with the turtles coming up on the sand in the daytime to lay their eggs.
