Moyenne Island is a small island (9.9 ha or 24 acres) 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.
Brendon Grimshaw purchased the island for £8,000 in 1962 and set about making the island habitable. He did this with the help of one other man, Rene Antoine Lafortune. They operated the island as a nature reserve, charging visitors €12 to come ashore, roam the island, dine at the "Jolly Roger" restaurant, and relax on the beach.
Grimshaw and his friend planted sixteen thousand trees, built 4.8 kilometers (3.0 mi) of nature paths, and brought and bred Aldabra giant tortoises, intending to create an island of incredible beauty. Apart from a wide variety of plant and birdlife, 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.
