Once a haven for pirates, who hid at the island between raids during the 16th and 17th century Seychelles islands, which served a major shipping route, it was not until 1744 when it was declared an island by a famous French explorer named Lazare Picault. As it was firstly mistreated by European colonists harming the local fauna and flora through farming and imports, their colonization moved further to the main island of Mahe, leaving Fregate to reestablish its natural environment.

The motto of the island today is to preserve it as much as possible, hence it strives today to maintain the highest conservation standards, integrated with luxury tourism to maintain and show a balance between the man made and the natural environment.

The Island is accessible only by a boat, helicopter or a plane, which operates once a day or several times a week from Mahe since the five star resort was opened in Fregate in 1999.

Fregate’s most famous, voted finest beach is Anse Victorin, which lays on the north side of the island. The island`s private villas, rented by celebrities once in a while as it is mostly deserted, provide a unique pathway of about a light 150 yards walk across the enchanting Fregate forest to this most remarkable Seychelles vacation beach.
