Did you ever wonder what keeps Seychelles’ coral reefs so vibrant? Here at the Marshes on La Digue, you’ll find a big part of the answer. The Marshes may seem unassuming, but they play a vital role. They act like a giant filter. They clean the water flowing to the sea. The Marshes remove organic materials before they can smother the coral. This protection is critical for Seychelles’ fishing and tourism industries. Imagine what would happen if the reefs disappeared. Now, think about the threats these invaluable Marshes face. Invasive species like the water hyacinth choke the waterways. Litter carelessly discarded upstream washes down, clogging the ecosystem. This damages plants and animals alike. The dedicated staff of the Wetland Unit from Praslin, La Digue and Mahé work tirelessly to protect the Marshes. They regularly join forces to carry out essential maintenance. They understand the importance of keeping the Marshes healthy. They know these wetlands are essential for everyone, now and for generations to come.
