It lies fifty-three miles (85km) north of the main island of Mahe and just a 30 minute on a scheduled flight away. The 375 acres of Denis Private Island barely rise a few feet above sea level and are fringed by coconut palms, brilliant white sand and coral reefs. Particularly lush for a coral island, Denis Private Island epitomises the Seychelles experience. Spacious cottages, are located along the beach and all discreetly positioned so that the verandah is not overlooked by your neighbour. A Beach Villa with private plunge pool is also available at Denis Island.
A small professional PADI Dive Centre is affiliated to the resort and provides a range of dive excursions and courses for beginners and advanced divers alike. The waters around Denis rank as some of the finest for diving in Seychelles and feature a number of dive sites allowing sightings of turtles, sharks, sting rays, sailfish, tuna and dolphins with whale sharks and manta rays often sighted from September to November. Enthusiasts flock to the waters of Denis for their abundance of game fishing and runs of bottom or bone fishing trips. Here you can experience the thrill of a fishing charter with experienced crews using state-of-the-art equipment. The local art of bottom-fishing or ‘palangrotte’ is a firm favourite with bone-fishing also increasing in popularity.
The Island is a great escape for adults and children – in families , as couples or Honeymooners. There is no formal “kids Club” but children are welcomed with daily activities and Island excursions. “The island is yours – Do as you will, without disturbing others” is the owner’s motto.
