One of the best holiday destinations in the world, Seychelles has much to offer and these are some reasons why you should enjoy your next getaway here.
Sublime Beaches
Some of the world’s best beaches can be found here ideal for family fun or romance! On La Digue, is the famed Anse Source d’Argent, while Mahe is home to such unspoiled beaches as Beau Vallon and Anse Louis; the latter is an ideal place to be based, at properties like Anantara Maia Seychelles Villas. Over on Praslin, are the Cote d’Or and Anse Lazio beaches that are equally captivating.
Idyllic Nature
While staying at all inclusive resorts, Seychelles adventures can also be enjoyed at sites of stunning natural beauty. Chief amongst these is the Vallee de Mai Nature Reserve; a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it’s where you will find an ancient forest with everything from the unique coco de mer palm to endemic birds including the endangered Seychelles black parrot and warbler.
Marine Wonders
The attractions in Seychelles are not just on land but under the waves too! Those enjoying snorkelling or diving here can look forward to seeing a wide range of marine species; these include reef fish like emperor angelfish, fire fish and half-moon angelfish and depending on when you visit, whitetip reef sharks, green sea turtles, manta rays and dolphins.
Culture & Cuisine
Seychelles has a rich culture with distinctive art, dancing and music, while a great place to experience local life would be the Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market where you can buy some handicrafts too. Not to be missed is the chance to savour local cuisine like grilled fish, octopus curry, chatini requin (using shark meat) and ladob (with ingredients like plantains) that can be sweet or savoury.
