The Seychelles Plateau is a submerged landmass located in the western Indian Ocean, near the islands of Seychelles. It is part of the larger Mascarene Plateau and is characterized by its shallow waters and rich marine biodiversity. The plateau is home to various coral reefs and supports numerous species of fish and other marine life. Geologically, the Seychelles Plateau is significant because it is believed to be a remnant of the ancient supercontinent Gondwana. The area is also important for its unique ecosystems and serves as a habitat for several endemic species. Its conservation is vital for maintaining the ecological balance in the region.
