Anchorages possible along the island (much better from north side). Bottom is sandy, anchor hold good. Easy landing on beach by dinghy.
Be very carefull because of Somalian Piracy. The cruise from Seychelles to Desroches could be very danger.
One of the most beauty place i've ever seen. Just a nature, with some wodden houses.
