Both the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin chose the stunning North Island for their romantic getaway.

Fregate Island Private has also been a favourite honeymoon destination for many celebrity couples and among them were Ronan Keating and wife Storm Uechtritz.

This year it was the Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau who chose to take his wife Sophie Grégoire-Trudeau to Seychelles on their honeymoon.

Prime Minister Trudeau was appointed late last year after the Liberal Party’s victory in the country’s general elections.

His father, the late Pierre Trudeau was a friend of Sir James Mancham, the founding President of Seychelles.
