The main inner islands are spectacular forested granite mountains rising from the Seychelles Bank plateau. The underwater seascape is primarily of huge granite boulders and schools of fish. At the edge of the plateau lie the coral islands such as Denis and Bird, and then scattered further away are the Amirates islands and atolls including Aldabra. As well as the numerous tropical fish, soft and hard corals there are Eagle Rays and Giant Sting Rays as well as Hawksbill and Green Turtles. There are schools of pelagics, sharks and the occasional dolphin. Then of course there are the seasonal gentle giants, the Whale Sharks.
