Things To Do In Seychelles

Explore The Seychelles Islands With Go Places Holidays

Seychelles Islands are so much more than sun, sea and sand and our new interactive map is your best guide to what fun awaits you on your holiday. Seychelles comprises 115 islands, but we’re going to focus on the three main ones since they’re connected by ferry routes, thus allowing you to visit multiple islands without introducing any complicated getting-around logistics. You are here to relax, after all.

What To Do In The Seychelles, The Once-A-Lifetime Island Vacation Of Your Dreams

Mahe

This is the largest island, where the majority of Seychellois live and also where the international airport is located, so unless you have some exciting other form of transportation in mind this is where you’re going to start and finish. In my experience at least, there are (friendly!) dogs running around the beaches, which for many people will be a perk but just something to be aware of if you’re afraid or allergic. Hike the Copolia Trail (time: about two hours) if you’re outdoorsy, then cool off with a swim at Beau Vallon Beach. If you’re looking to party, Mahe is where you’ll find clubs like Tequila Boom that aren’t a fixture on the smaller, quieter islands.

Praslin

Praslin is home to Anse Lazio, one of those beaches that wins awards for looking like rich people’s platonic ideal of a beach. Aside from the color of the sand (extremely white) and the water (what I believe those in the nursery-painting business call “seafoam”), both of which are recurring themes throughout the country, a big draw here is that there are zero rocks anywhere on the beach; there’s not even coral, just soft naked sand you can wade out in barefoot without ever having to worry about stepping on anything. Anse Lazio can be a bit of a hike/bike ride to get to, and while it’s absolutely worth it if you do make it out there, don’t stress if you don’t; there are a lot of nice beaches.
