| Information |
Desroches,
to the east of Poivre, was the first atoll
of the outer islands to open its doors to tourism and is connected
to Mahé by regular
flights. The presence of rats limits bird
interest but Island Conservation Society has plans to implement conservation
programmes in partnership with Great Plains, one of the operators
on the island. The island has a good population of nesting turtles. |
