St Anne Island, Seychelles Cruise Port

Do you smell that? Is that cinnamon? Stark against the green hillsides of St. Anne Island are wild cinnamon trees basking in the sunlight. This island is the largest of an archipelago known as the St. Anne Marine National Park. First discovered in 1742, this island is now a tourist hot spot, encompassing some of the best scuba diving in the world. The small island, less than one square mile, is renowned for its beaches, and the main part of the island is encompassed by a luxury resort.

• Enjoy a day of immersion on a short walk to the village of the indigenous people of the island. With only 40 natives, traditions run deep and old practices are still relied upon.
   
• See, turtles! That’s right, this island has sea turtles! Spot the little guys poking around in the grass for a snack or bathing in the tropical sun on the sand.
   
• Dive down into protected reefs for a chance to see the vibrant wildlife that is a part of the St. Anne Marine National Park.
