In your dreams you might have seen yourself on the perfect paradise
island , or imagined unbroken expanses of powder white
beaches, lapped by amazing azure waters, home to the many species of
marine life. The Seychelles is where that fantasy comes true - 155 jewels
of island studded around the Indian Ocean, awaiting your discovery.
Few places in the world offer such stunning verdant landscapes or such
an hospitable welcome, as do the Seychelles, every island is truly unique,
each a tiny secluded paradise, rich in nature reserves and marine parks.
Our Seychelles, island hopping option gives guests the opportunity to
spend a handful of days on two or three islands, discovering and experiencing
their different atmospheres. Regular light aircraft flights, helicopter
and boat transfers make travel between your chosen islands simple. Will
it be the exclusive hideaway of Sainte Anne, or remote and unspoiled
Alphonse ? possibly Tranquil Praslin with the unique Coco de Mer, or
the ornithologist's delight of Bird Island,. Suggested itineraries are
included to whet your appetite.
Bird Life : Almost every island seems to have some rare species of bird,
four of the islands are actually bird sanctuaries.
Fishing is a way of life in the seychelles, there will always be a local
with a boat, many clients just visit for a quite seychelles fishing holiday
- and to as one with nature.
The mainstay of the islands' economy is tourism, with some 150,000 visitors
to the Seychelles annually.
The islands that make-up the 'Seychelles' are relatively small in area
and the roads (particularly around Mahe) are littled travelled. Walking
and hiking are therefore great alternatives to the beaches, where one
can escape and appreciate the scenery and natural beauty of the wild
and hilly mountainous areas all around.
Over the past several decades, more and more artists and crafts-people
have settled in the Seychelles, today there is quite a vibrant cottage
industry serving the souvenir and tourist market.
Skimpy beachwear is okay to wear for the hotel and beaches, but you may
attract lingering gazes if worn elsewhere. There are many secluded beaches
for those wishing to bathe topless.
Seychelles holidays are an expensive destination in comparison to other
holiday locations, so it's important for visitors not to arrive on a
shoestring budget. However photographic equipment and supplies such as
films, it would be cost effective to take ones own, rather then purchase
on the Seychelles. Major credit cards are accepted in most shops, restaurants
etc; and banks give cash advances against the cards.
For contrast, the Seychelles, combines the peaceful setting of
the islands, with a more busy cultural week staying at Dubai;
or if you're feeling adventurous safari in South Africa.
