5 Things to Do In The Seychelles Islands


In May, we went island hopping in the magnificent Seychelles. Are you looking for a vacation in paradise? If yes, the Seychelles are a very good choice! In this blog post you will find a short travel advice on what places to visit in the Seychelles islands. Enjoy the reading...and then? Prepare your credit card! Hihi:)

1. Bike to the Anse Source d'Argent Beach

Get a boat to the beautiful island La Digue. Check the schedule and prices here.  Once there, rent a bike for the whole day for around 10 Euros per day and bike to the world-famous Anse Source d'Argent beach. Go in the early morning hours as it tends to get pretty crowded later on.

2. Get a boat to the Curieuse Island 

The best way to reach the island is to organize the boat trip with a local tourist operator or at your hotel on Praslin. The Curieuse Island offers you a unique experience with the giant tortoises and a walk through the jungle. Expect paying an entrance fee when arriving to the island.

3. Explore Praslin and visit Anse Lazio

Bike, drive or walk to the one of the most beautiful beaches on earth - Anse Lazio. It is located on my favourite island in the Seychelles islands - Praslin. Again, go early in the morning or in the evening hours and get romantic at the breathtaking sunsets! Nearby is even a tortoise farm if you haven't seen them somewhere else before.

4. Rent a car in Mahe and visit the colourful capital city - Victoria

When arriving to the Mahe island you will probably want to be flexible and explore the island on your own. Rent a car for ca. 40 Euros per day, get used to driving on the left (be careful, the streets are narrow..) and have a stop in the capital city of The Seychelles - Victoria! It is a must to visit the market where you can get for example coconut oil, spices, fresh mangos, bananas and fish! Get a first impression of the colonial city with colourful buildings! If you have time, visit the botanical garden in the south of the city (10 minutes walk from the city center) and take photos of the rare plant called Coco de Mer.

    Praslin was an incredible place to visit, just got back from 12 nights there. Never felt so relaxed in my life. There is loads to do on Praslin from amazing snorkelling spots, to eating local creole food and hunting for the sexiest seed on earth! I have written up our visit here and hopefully your readers will find it useful? (I'm sure they'll be straight back, as not alot else to read on my site!!) http://benreeve.co.uk/seychelles/

    My name is Tom Peacock from USA, I want to say thank you to Dr Emu for the good thing he has done for me, Though am not sure if this is the best forum to show my joy and happiness for what he has done for me but i can't hide my happiness and my joy so i have to share it with people, my marriage got crashed about two years ago and i tried all i could within my power but to no avail. I saw a post and testimonial about the good things Dr Emu has been doing so I decided to give it a try. though he is always a busy man but when he responded back to my email, he gave me 48 hours for my marriage to be restored really just like he said my marriage was restored since then I am happy and i am living happily i am so grateful to Dr Emu you can always email him here: {emutemple@gmail.com} or WhatsApp: {+2347012841542}

    I was really stressed by Acid reflux issues with my newborn and had consulted Chief Dr Lucky. He gave us a thorough consultation and the medicines were equally effective. In a couple of weeks there was big improvement in my son and we are very pleased with the progress. We cannot thank Chief Dr Lucky enough. Highly recommended.
