by wrldtravler

Get ready to spend some time with yourself. There isn't much to do by way of sightseeing in seychelles. So bring along a few books or whatever you choose to do with your days and choose a different beach or Island everyday.

by nikke

Visit La Digue Island and its Anse Source D'Argent beach. Countless beaches worldwide are called the world's most beautiful beach by locals. Well, I've been around a lot and nothing I've seen thus far compares to the beauty of La Digue's Anse D'Argent. It does not have the best snorkeling or the best reef in the Seychelles...much less in the world, BUT those granite outcrops provide the beach with perfect beauty. I've never heard any one having had the opportunity to marvel Anse Source D'Argent's beauty deny that fact that it is INDEED the most beautiful beach they have ever seen. It's really a bit beyond your imagination... It's really hard to say, which is my fondest memory of the Seychelles. It could be La Digue's Anse Source D'Argent beach, Praslin's UN World Heritage site Vallee de Mai with its ancient coco-de-mer forest, the good snorkeling reef around the tiny isle of St. Pierre...

Visit the capital, Victoria! This picture is of the clock at the main junction. It's the world's smallest capital city, and is a great place to be! :)Try the Pirate's Arms for great food or a cool drink...Oh, and buy some 'busy bee' honey from the main supermarket - the nicest thing i've ever tasted!! (it's from australia, but you can buy seychelles honey too!)

watch the sun set.... this picture was taken from near the Nature Protection Trust house on Silhouette.because the sky is so clear, you can see the Milky Way and Mars at night (depending on the time of year). And look out for Orion - he's sideways!! laying on the pier at La Passe, next to an ENORMOUS pile of coconuts, watching the stars!

Go for a hike in the mist forests on Mahe or Silhouette. Get a guide to take you up and show you the sights! Standing on the beach at La Passe on Silhouette, looking towards Mahe in the sunshine and thinking how lucky I was....

AstrOlga's General Tip

by AstrOlga

I spent New Year's Eve there in 1997, we had found this lovely beach with a fisherman called Jean-Baptiste. He had arranged a small hut with a few tables and he would grill on the beach what he had been fishing and serve it to you on the spot. We were a dozen of people and we had so much fun, eating, drinking, singing and playing guitar around the fire and swimming and plunging from the rocks for the midnight... It was the best New Year's Eve..Now in the same beach, Anse Takamaka, Jean-Baptiste has built a big restaurant and even has a few rooms to rent, but... One lobster costs $80!!! Go there only to have a beer, the place is cute, and maybe he'll make up his mind and go back to reasonable prices!

by anniehon

Get to know the locals. They are the nicest people in the world, and make you feel so welcome and at home. Going as far as the road goes and then trecking for a long while down a narrow footpath with a ravine to one side to meet the girls family for the first time.....Heaven on earth! The pic is me Simone and Hollyanne with the family in Mont Plaisir
