One of the most interesting Indian Ocean archipelagos with granite boulder-lined beaches. Walking up to the grand plateau to enjoy the sunset was one of my highlights.

The Speelmans
We had a wonderful stay at Alphonse. It was fantastic – we went out fishing and easily caught loads of fish. It was perfect for the family too, and my daughter Lucy started her PADI there. The weather was great the whole time and we really couldn’t fault a single part of our trip.
