A Week of Golden Horizons: Sunset Celebrations on a Castaway Paradise at Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island

At Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island, sunsets are more than just a daily spectacle, they are a celebration of nature, luxury, and unforgettable moments. Each evening from 6:00 to 7:00 pm, the sky transforms into a breathtaking canvas of gold, rose, and tangerine, inviting guests to pause, breathe, and revel in the tranquil beauty of the Indian Ocean.

Over the course of a week, visitors can be immersed in a curated series of extraordinary sunset experiences. The island’s 14 kilometres (9 miles) of pristine, white-sand beaches offer countless perfect vantage points, from the historic charm of Madame Zabre Beach to the hidden coves of Reef End Beach. Yet the magic truly comes alive at The Lighthouse, where sweeping panoramic views meet the endless ocean, and along the Jetty, where the sun’s reflection shimmers across the water and the gentle sea breeze heightens every moment. Guests can elevate these golden-hour moments by choosing from champagne, fine wines, cocktails, or an assortment of snacks, perfectly paired to complement the setting sun and enhance their personal experience. Whether savoured from a private dinner on the beach, a leisurely stroll along the shore, or from the comfort of a pool villa, every sunset feels uniquely luxurious.

Nasreen Khan, Conservation Manager at Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island, reflects on the deeper significance behind these evenings: “Here on Desroches, every sunset feels like a reminder of why we protect this remarkable place. Watching the sun dip from the Lighthouse or the Jetty, you see more than colours in the sky, you witness the delicate balance of our ecosystems. Sharing these moments with our guests, while preserving this paradise for future generations, is a true privilege.”

The week of sunsets is complemented by a full spectrum of island experiences. Guests may enjoy dawn kayaking, guided nature walks, sunrise yoga, and stargazing beneath the pristine Seychelles night sky. Each activity is framed by the shimmering Indian Ocean, providing a constant reminder of the island’s natural splendour. From the soft lapping of waves to the warm glow of the horizon, Desroches Island becomes a sanctuary for the senses, offering an escape that is both luxurious and rejuvenating. Guests wishing to take to the seas, there is the sunset cruise that offers a stunning way to witness the hues from the ocean, which can be paired with sundowners to add to the experience.

Whether captured in photographs, savoured in quiet reflection, or shared in intimate gatherings, the sunsets at Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island leave an indelible impression. With the option to complement these moments with champagne, drinks, or gourmet snacks of their choosing, guests are invited to fully embrace the island’s golden hour and create memories that linger long after the sun has set.
