1 Visit Praslin Island

Praslin is considered to be the most beautiful island in Seychelles! Abounding in dense vegetation, lush coconut groves and six endemic palm species, including the strange-looking coco de mer, Praslin is a tropical delight.

Snorkel among living corals abounding in 900 species of fish, or go swimming at Anse Lazio that ranks among the world’s best beaches! What makes Anse Lazio in Praslin so special? Its pristine blue waters, great waves, luscious vegetation and granite boulders together with a remote feel add to its appeal.

2 Unwind on the beaches of La Digue

The famous Anse Source d’Argent beach on the island of La Digue was the setting for many international feature films and photoshoots. Arrive in La Digue and head to the Anse Source d’Argent beach in the morning or late in the afternoon: then you have the beaches almost to yourself!

You can swim in the beautiful sea-green waters and witness wonderful marine life, explore the lush forests, and relax on the white sandy beaches. The island a delight for birdwatchers – explore it on foot or on a bicycle.

3 Explore the delights of Mahe

Creole culture (especially the cuisine) is particularly good on Mahe, the largest island in Seychelles. We highly recommend you watch the sunset on the beach of enchanting Anse Soleil Bay. Mahe’s forests have rare endemic plants found only in Seychelles and many unique species of orchids.

Visit the Craft Village, the Creole Institute, go for a walk as you admire the Victoria clock tower and immerse yourself in Mahe’s lively Creole culture.

4 Go island hopping in Seychelles

The best way to get to know all the facets of these idyllic tropics is to go island hopping around Seychelles. From the three main islands of Mahe, La Digue and Praslin, you can take wonderful day trips to the surrounding, smaller islands of Seychelles.

Lie on sandy beaches, swim in warm blue waters, enjoy a range of water sports, marvel at the marine life or simply relax in a luxurious resort – your options are aplenty! This is easily one of the best things to do in Seychelles!

Divers will adore exploring Desroches Island in Seychelles with its spectacular labyrinthine underwater world of caves and tunnels. On the southern side lies the huge atoll called ‘off the wall’, made of ancient limestone reef with dramatic caverns, caves, tunnels and overhangs.

7 Explore the waters of Cerf Island

In the middle of the Sainte Anne Marine National Park lies Cerf Island, and its location is what makes the tiny island a perfect starting point for snorkelers and divers. It is the only island in the park with a small local population of locals. The waters around here are teeming with marine life – more than 150 species of reef fish, crabs, sea urchins, starfish, octopus and more!

Diving centers are plentiful and snorkeling equipment is readily available for hire as well. One of the best places to dive in Seychelles!
