The Lighthouse
Seychelles
The Lighthouse gives dinner on Desroches Island a broad Indian Ocean outlook. At the Four Seasons resort, the beachfront restaurant's terrace provides 180-degree views, making the water and evening light part of the meal. The kitchen focuses on fresh-caught seafood and dry-aged meats, using grilling and smoking to build flavour. Signature dishes highlighted by the restaurant include scallops, seared yellowfin tuna and beef carpaccio, with rustic chocolate cake among the desserts. The associated Lighthouse Lounge offers a place for a sunset drink before dinner or a quieter finish afterwards. A visit can therefore begin with the changing light and continue around the table, with seafood or a meat dish chosen according to appetite. Menus and opening days vary with the resort's arrangements.
