This World Environment Day, we're celebrating some of our top eco-friendly sustainable resorts in the Caribbean and Indian Ocean.
From eliminating single-use plastic waste, to reducing carbon emissions, and providing and protecting habitat for birds, sealife and mammals, these resorts make us proud to work alongside them and inspire us to protect our planet.
Denis Private Island, Seychelles – Eco-Friendly Ethos
A committed conservation programme is a key feature of this private island’s eco-friendly ethos; you’ll feel like you’ve entered another world as you wander along tropical jungle pathways, discover the giant tortoise colony, and swim with turtles at the house reef. Conservation efforts to translocate some of the rarest birds in the Seychelles mean Denis Private Island is the only place in the world you’ll happen upon the magpie robin, paradise flycatcher and Seychelles warbler all in one morning!
