Island Hopping (Praslin & La Digue)
“Paradise on Earth” and “Garden of Eden”, these are just some of the names associated with the magical island paradise that is The Seychelles. Lying in the warm tropical waters of the Indian Ocean, approximately 1600km from Africa’s east coast, this archipelago of 115 mostly uninhabited islands occupies an area almost the size of France, Italy and Spain put together! From the lush mountainous granite Inner Islands of Mahe, Praslin and La Digue to the low-lying coral atolls and reefs of the Outer Islands, the Seychelles offers visitors pristine beaches, clear turquoise waters and deliciously warm weather year-round. With each island having its own unique identity and special character, no visit to the Seychelles would be complete without experiencing more than just one island.

Snorkeling
The Seychelles archipelago is made up of over 115 stunning islands and islets emerging from the Indian Ocean. Each island has it own unique colourful character, however they all have one thing in common – white sandy beaches bathed by warm, crystal-clear aqua waters.
Amazingly over 50% of the Seychelles territory is classified as natural reserves, offering a safe haven for undersea creatures to flourish. This makes for some memorable snorkelling and diving opportunities.

Seychelles has become the epicenter of salt-water fly-fishing and casting your fly lines on the magnificent shallow flats of the Outer Islands will afford you the chance of landing several energetic silver bonefish to challenge the record books. Blue-water fly-fishing is also becoming increasingly popular, providing the ultimate challenge of landing large pelagic fish on relatively light tackle.

There are some amazing hikes to be found in the rocky middles of these islands, so read on to find out more about the best hiking trails in the Seychelles.
Sightseeing
The Seychelles lie east of Kenya, near the equator. Almost half their total land area is protected, and many of the islands and atolls are contained within marine sanctuaries. Stunning and unspoiled, the Seychelles star in countless tropical island fantasies. Beautiful boulder-strewn beaches, virgin jungles, thriving coral reefs, and UNESCO-listed nature reserves are just some of the many attractions of the archipelago’s 115 coral and granite islands, which are the peaks of a vast underwater plateau.
On land, you can hike mountain trails, bask on the ravishing beaches, rock climb, photograph the unique flora and fauna, and dine on mouthwatering Créole cuisine. Aquatic pursuits abound in the clear, azure water. Diving, snorkeling, surfing, and sailing are all world class, and the Seychelles boast some of the richest fishing grounds in the world.
