Explore one of UNESCO's most remote World Heritage Sites — a coral atoll teeming with giant tortoises, hawksbill turtles, and pristine coral gardens virtually untouched by mass tourism.
What to expect
Land on one of the world's most isolated atolls under permit from the SIF research team, who serve as your expert naturalist guides. Walk open limestone plains where Aldabra giant tortoises roam freely and frigatebirds spiral overhead. Snorkel in gin-clear lagoon waters over bommies alive with Napoleon wrasse and reef sharks. The silence here is profound — this is conservation travel at its most authentic.
Good to know
Visits require advance coordination with SIF and your vessel's itinerary must include Aldabra as a port. Contact SIF a minimum of 8 weeks ahead. Landing permits are non-transferable; bring reef-safe sunscreen and water shoes.
