Places to explore in Seychelles

Victoria
A day on foot is ample time to see Victoria, one of the smallest capitals in the world. Located on Mahe, one of the Seychelles' 115 granite and coral islands, Victoria is the republic's business and cultural hub. At its center sits the Victoria Clocktower, a national monument reminiscent of London's "Big Ben" that has kept ticking since 1903, unaffected by the modern glass and concrete development around it. Visit the local art galleries and craft markets to soak up the city's friendly charm.
Praslin Island
One of the Seychelles’ most popular destinations, Praslin is home to fantastic beaches and intimate hotels and resorts. Soak up the sun in style while you keep a sunglassed eye out for the very rare bird species that dwell on Praslin, including the Seychelles bulbul and the black parrot. Praslin National Park in the island's south contains the spectacular palm forest of Vallée de Mai. Divers love the ancient coral reefs off Praslin's shores.

Main Attractions

The Seychelles are a classic holiday destination for those looking for an idyllic beach break. Anse Lanzio, on Praslin, is the quintessential postcard perfect beach. The beach’s pure white sands and clear waters are popular with honeymooners and families on a day out. Over on La Digue, the iconic Anse Source d’Argent is sheltered by a reef, providing it with calm, clear waters that are perfect for snorkelling or paddling. Explore the Vallee de Mai Nature Reserve to display the islands’ unique flora and fauna. Coco de Mer palms can be found here, and a lucky few might be able to catch a glimpse of the rare Seychelles Black Parrot. Learn more about the islands’ past, and its culture, at the modest Natural History Museum in Victoria.

Shopping, Dining and Nightlife

Go to the Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market in Victoria to pick up fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as fish caught that very day. Little stalls can be found along the streets of Victoria and around Mahe, selling local handicrafts, fruit juices and snacks. Visitors to La Digue can go to Gregoire’s Store, a well-stocked supermarket, to purchase items for a beach picnic. The Boat House on Mahe offers a sumptuous buffet of Creole dishes such as octopus curry, palm heart salad and grilled fish. The Marie Antoinette Restaurant is popular with locals for its generous portions of hearty Creole dishes. Nightlife is mainly confined to Mahe and Praslin. The Lovenut Nightclub is one of Victoria’s most popular nightspots. Katiolo, one of the largest and busiest discos in the Seychelles, is a favourite with hip young locals.
