The Praslin Island is also home to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Vallee de Mai.

The Vallee de Mai is famous for its flora and bird life and has the largest growth of the famous Coco-de-Mer trees.

Praslin Island can also be considered to be a great base for trips to the neighbouring Cousine Island, Curieuseor to St.Pierre. There are three main settlements- Baie St. Anne, Grand Anse and Cote D’Or. These settlements are no more than small villages from where you can obtain your daily requirements. The rest of the island is hardly inhabited and gives you a feel of quite out of everything if you like to be alone and away. You can get to Praslin from Mahe in a private boat charter.
