We pay assiduous attention to sustainability, around 80% of our food comes from our bountiful island. Guests are always invited to participate in the conservation projects; observing free roaming giant tortoises and exotic birds, assisting turtle hatchlings and cultivating sea coral. At Fregate Island Private we take beautiful care of our guests and our environment.

Our small island is fertile and bountiful, and we host the largest hydroponics system in the Seychelles, so anytime of year if the chef makes a wish for an ingredient it could be grown in six weeks.
