Aldabra, situated in the Aldabra Group of islands, is the world's second-largest coral atoll. The atoll is comprised of four large coral islands which enclose a shallow lagoon; the group of islands is itself surrounded by a coral reef. Due to difficulties of access and the atoll's isolation, Aldabra has been protected from human influence and thus retains some 152,000 giant tortoises, the world's largest population of this reptile. For that reason, it was included in the World Heritage list in 1982.

Here you can take advantage and practice some activities: swimming, scuba diving, snorkelling, etc.
