North Island Lodge

Seychelles

North Island Lodge

Remote, intimate and highly luxurious, even by the standards of the Seychelles, North Island is one of the most spectacular - and expensive - beach retreats in Africa.

North Island lays hidden and secluded, as one of the smaller islands within the breathtaking Seychelles Archipelago. The island combines beautiful beaches with a lush, unspoiled interior of granite mountains, wetlands and jungle. Intimate and luxurious, even by Seychelles standards, North Island is the perfect destination for honeymooners and romantics. There are four exquisite beaches facing in different directions and the diving is world class.

North Island Lodge has been built in a style that is as natural as the trees, beaches and rocks that surround it, with soft driftwood furnishings and zen-like water features. The owners are committed to preserving the ecology of the island and fund an intensive programme to reintroduce endangered species to the area. The resident ecologist is on hand for guided walks to explore the fabulous flora, fauna and birdlife of the island.

Facilities at North Island Lodge include lounge, dining room, spa and gym, dive centre and rim-flow pool, all built into a granite outcrop. There's a bar and restaurant overlooking the beach. Activities available locally include guided island walks, fishing, boat rides, kayaking, snorkelling and diving.

North Island Lodge is owned and managed by luxury safari operator Wilderness Safaris.
