It features the world’s largest population of giant tortoises, exceeding 100,000 individuals, along with critical breeding sites for endangered green and hawksbill turtles. The atoll comprises four large coral islands that encircle a tranquil lagoon, surrounded by vibrant coral reefs teeming with marine life, including manta rays and tiger sharks. Designated as a protected area, Aldabra remains largely untouched by humans, preserving its unique geological and ecological features.
