| About Seychelles |
This grouping of 116 islands, either coral or granite, combine to form what is possibly the most exquisite holiday destination in the world.
We concentrate on the ‘Inner Islands’ of Mahé, Praslin, La Digue and their satellite islets, which are mostly granite and offer stunning vistas of soaring smoothed grey rocks and mountains, their slopes clothed in dense groves of palms and exotic flowering trees surrounded by limpid clear water and sugar-white sand
Bird and Dennis Islands are the true ‘Paradise Islands’ – remote stretches of coral sand surrounded by turquoise and azure lagoons, their interiors densely populated with palm groves. This is the real Seychelles and it really is a must to sample their delights.
All these islands have landing strips and are served by regular, comfortable Air Seychelles connections. We recommend you split your stay between Mahé and Praslin, taking a day trip to La Digue by ferry from Praslin. This gives you amazing variety, for each island has different attractions. Or just go straight to Denis or even Cerf for a week. After all, that’s the real point of the Seychelles – island hopping! |

MAHÉ ISLAND
Chief of Mahé's many attractions is the smallest capital city in the world - Victoria. It's cute and picturesque and has a mini Big Ben in the middle of the street! The resort area of Beau Vallon has a stunning beach lined with hotels and some great pubs, restaurants and clubs. The rest of the island is simply beautiful - hire a car and take a leisurely drive!
PRASLIN ISLAND
So beautiful, so full of interesting things to see and do and beaches to simply die for. The exotic ‘Garden of Eden' - The Valéé de Mai - has the most wonderful Coco de Mer palms with startlingly realistic male and female features - legend has it that they make love to each other under the full moon. Ah, Seychelles, the Islands of Love! |
