Hodoul Island sits in Victoria Harbour and was historically used as a quarantine station for arriving ships. Today, it is a protected nature reserve, offering a peaceful retreat with walking trails through native coastal forest. Visitors can observe various seabirds and enjoy views of the harbour and surrounding islands. The island's quiet beaches and historical remnants provide a unique glimpse into Seychelles' past. Access is by private boat or guided tour, and it remains a lesser-known gem for nature enthusiasts.
