Astove Atoll

Welcome to the immaculate ecosystem of Astove Atoll. The atoll holds a large inner lagoon, white sandy beaches, a plethora of bird and fish species, and the awe-inspiring ‘Astove Wall’ holds impressive sheer drop-offs which makes you feel like you’re staring down the Grand Canyon.

Previously uninhabited since 1969, Astove makes for a truly wild experience. Pristine and untouched, this is one of the most remote and secluded experiences in all of Seychelles.

Location

The islands of Astove and Charlotte that make up the atoll is located roughly 35 km south-west of Cosmoledo Atoll. This atoll forms part of the remote jewels scattered throughout the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, namely the Outer Islands of the Seychelles.

The Astove Coral House

The single accommodation, the newly renovated Astove Coral House, ensures a unique experience as it only caters for a small number of guests per week. The House provides stylish relaxation with Creole dining and great service.

Rooms

Surrounding a central courtyard, the 6 rooms are charming, comfortable and well-appointed.

With en-suite bathrooms and full airconditioning, the recently refurbished rooms offer you rustic accommodation in one of the most remote locations in the world!

Diving

Astove is a world filled with colour, where the daily dramas of a pristine ecosystem play out in front of your very eyes. The atoll is famous for the acclaimed underwater documentary "The Silent World", partly filmed here by Jacques Cousteau.

• Amazing underwater topography with an incredibly steep wall
• Highly diverse coral reef including large, hard coral formations
• An abundance of reef and predatory fish species

Turtle Tracking

The islands of Astove Atoll have the highest density of nesting Green Turtles in the Seychelles. There is a good chance of spotting these creatures on night walks and on the reef.
