PRASLIN
ISLAND - OPTIONAL TRIP - VALEE DE MAI
Vallee
de Mai Nature Reserve is a nature park and UNESCO World Heritage Site (inscribed
in 1983) located on the island of Praslin, Seychelles. It was officially declared
a nature reserve on 18 April 1966. It consists of a well-preserved palm forest
made up of the endemic Coco de Mer, as well as five other endemic palms.
The
Coco de Mer has the largest seeds of any plant in the world; the leaves growing
up to 6 m wide and 14 m long. Also unique to the park is its wildlife, including
birds such as the rare Seychelles Black Parrot, mammals, crustaceans, snails,
and reptiles.
Aldabra
and Vallee de Mai are both unique, and represent the rich natural heritage of
Seychelles. At these sites SIF conserves:
The
world's largest raised coral atoll. The world's largest giant tortoise population.
Some of the world's most spectacular seabird colonies. The largest intact
coco-de-mer forest and many other endemic trees, plants and animals. Unique
birds, including the last surviving flightless bird of the Indian Ocean, the Aldabra
Rail, and the endangered Seychelles Black Parrot.
