Les Mamelles

Location of Les Mamelles District on Mahé Island, Seychelles

Les Mamelles is an administrative district of the Seychelles, located in the south of the Greater Victoria (suburban) area on Mahé, the main island of the archipelago. The district is located inward from the adjacent coastal district of Roche Caiman. It is not to be confused with Mamelles Island some six kilometers northeast of Mahé.

Les Mamelles District was created in 1998 mostly from reclaimed land and from parts of Plaisance district. Therefore, it does not yet have its own ISO 3166-2 code.
