    - Moyenne Island is a small island in the Ste Anne Marine National Park off the north coast of Mahé, Seychelles. Since the 1970s it has been a flora and fauna reserve. From 1915 until the 1960s, the island was abandoned until its purchase by Brendon Grimshaw, a former newspaper editor, originally from Dewsbury in Yorkshire, England.Grimshaw was the only inhabitant of the island until his death in July 2012.Currently the island is a National Park and can be visited as part of organized trips.It was fun to watch the giant tortoises wandering around. The beaches are lovely, and there are stunning views of other islands in the distance.
    Grimshaw and his friend planted sixteen thousand trees, built 4.8 kilometres (3.0 mi) of nature paths, and brought and bred giant tortoises, intending to create an island of incredible beauty. Apart from a wide variety of plant and bird life, the island is home to around 120 giant tortoises.[The eldest, Desmond, is 76 years old, according to Grimshaw in 2012. He named the tortoise after his godson.
    After 20 years of persistence, Grimshaw and his assistant Lafortune achieved their goal of making Moyenne Island a National Park in its own right, separate to that of the Ste. Anne marine park. Now known as the Moyenne Island National Park, it harbours more species per square foot than any other part of the world.The island is 4.5 kilometres (2.8 mi) away from the main island of Mahe.(Wiki)
