Welcome to 

    Round Island

 

 

Round Island (Île Ronde) rises from the azure blue  Indian Ocean off the north coast of Mauritius. 

 

Mainland Mauritius lost the Dodo but Round Island is still home to unique species of boas, skinks, geckos, palm trees, herbs and for some, don't exist in the wild anywhere  else on Earth! 

 

The island has not been undamaged by human activity  but conservation actions have started to restore the  island to a functioning island once again.
