WHY VISIT SEYCHELLES?
Beaches
Arguably one of the top reasons to visit the Seychelles, the beaches boast white powdery sands, fringed by iconic coco de mer palms and kissed by crystal-clear aquamarine waters—truly unmatched anywhere else.
Island hopping
With so many extraordinarily perfect islands from which to choose, it makes total sense to visit more than one. Each island is unique – from Mahé with its bustling capital, to the castaway style smaller private islands, where oxcarts are used for transport.
Cuisine
A rich Creole cuisine has developed over the years, blending African, Arabian, and Indian influences, with each island offering its own local specialties. Fresh fish is, of course, always a highlight.
Flora & fauna
The Seychelles is home to some of the Indian Ocean’s most diverse and vibrant wildlife. From rare orchids and the iconic coco de mer to brilliantly coloured birds, turtles, and tortoises, the islands are a haven of biodiversity that the Seychellois work passionately to protect.
Aldabra giant tortoises
Endemic to the Aldabra Atoll—the world’s second-largest coral atoll—these majestic tortoises can live well beyond a hundred years, with an estimated population of around 100,000 thriving in this protected habitat.
