All About Simply Sensational
Seychelles
The Seychelles is a gorgeous archipelago in East Africa, in the Indian Ocean. This nation, including over 92,000 residents, is famously known as an alluring coastal holiday destination. An Indian Ocean holiday dream come true – calm azure waters, deserted beaches, tropical paradise and turquoise lagoons. This string of islands offers sparkling white sandy beaches and coral reefs bustling with sea life. The flora and fauna are unique, the mountains are covered in lush vegetation, and the landscape offers a stunning and multi-faceted panorama.
The three most popular islands in the Seychelles archipelago are Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue. Home to 98% of the Seychelles’ population, these three are clustered in the archipelago’s northeast area known as the Inner Island group. Mahé and Praslin are Seychelles’ largest islands (nearby Silhouette Island is larger than La Digue, but less populated), and all three are granitic (versus coral). The Inner Islands also include other popular islands to visit on your Seychelles holiday, such as Denis, Bird, Silhouette, and North. For visitors who can tear themselves away from their resort, the Seychelles offers a wide variety of things to see and do; from the prehistoric rainforest of Praslin’s National Park to the 70 beaches of Mahé and endless water sports.
You could take an excursion to Mahe’s capital, Victoria, to admire its colonial mansions and meet the giant tortoises at the botanical gardens. You can also visit tiny islands such as beautiful La Digue, perhaps joining local fishermen in their boat for a day’s angling in the abundant waters. You will find proud national monuments, beautiful Creole houses, artists’ studios, national reserves and marine parks, as well as breath-taking natural wonders above and beneath the waves.
WHAT TO PACK FOR SEYCHELLES
As the Seychelles are warm throughout the year it is recommended that you pack light comfortable relaxed clothing. Most resorts are quite casual, so light clothing should be adequate at most times – you may also want to take a thin rain jacket in the event of the occasional rain shower. The Seychelles’ beaches are world famous and ranked as some of the most beautiful on the planet. It is likely you will be spending a lot of time on the beach, so be sure to bring your beachwear plus sunscreen and sunglasses. Pack light, easy-breathing clothes. The Seychelles can be quite humid at certain times of the year (especially from December to April) and light, comfortable, cotton garments are strongly recommended.
