Cocos Island is a small granitic island bathed by crystal-clear waters and made of rocks and a few palm trees well frequented as a popular snorkeling and diving destination for its living and natural aquarium filled with countless colorful reef fish and a wealth of coral while high above the white-tailed tropical birds fly around. Encounters with the Hawksbill sea turtles, spotted eagle rays and squids are not uncommon. Snorkeling enthusiasts should not leave the Seychelles without exploring this exceptional spot.

A trip to Cocos can be combined with a barbecue on Sister Island or lunch at a laid back creole restaurant on La Digue and the visit to the famous Anse Source D’Argent.
