SUN-DRENCHED ESCAPES TO THE SEYCHELLES

Dazzling white sands, sparkling turquoise waters, and mesmerising coral reefs – The Seychelles is an archipelago of 115 tiny islands home to some of the most stunning beaches and exquisite hotels in the world.

About as close to paradise as you’ll get, this sun-drenched Indian Ocean retreat will leave you stunned by its extraordinary dreamlike scenery.  You can expect to discover everything from tropical marine life and towering granite rocks to mountain rainforests and rocky mountainsides. Spend your days sunbathing on powdery soft sands, trekking through heritage-listed nature reserves, snorkelling alongside shoals of reef fish or head out on a speed boat adventure. A holiday to the Seychelles is perfect for both relaxation and exploration.

AN IRRESISTIBLE ISLAND ESCAPE

If you can drag yourself away from the hypnotic shores, wander the colourful streets of Victoria, the capital city, where you’ll find all sorts of souvenirs amongst the open-air markets. Or head to Gran Kaz on Silhouette Island, home to the island’s owners, the Dauban family until 1960. Get to know a little about the island's history at the museum before enjoying some traditional, mouth-watering Creole cuisine.

Although infamous for their beaches, these islands are also home to an impressive collection of national parks. Morne Seychellois National Park offers some of the country’s best hiking trails across rugged mountains whilst Sainte-Anne Marine National Park provides one of the best spots for dolphin watching.

Whilst a holiday to the Seychelles caters to nature-lovers and adventurers alike making it a fantastic family holiday, it’s the glimmering emerald waters and idyllic white-sand beaches that this island does best. If you are dreaming of a romantic honeymoon hideaway or simply want to unwind in your own patch of paradise, there’s no better place to do it than here.

✸ SEYCHELLES ESCAPE OF THE MONTH ✸

ISLAND HOPPING - MAHE, PRASLIN & LA DIGUE

Island-hopping the Seychelles is a fabulous way to get a real sense of island life in the Indian Ocean. Visit busy Mahé and wonderfully rustic Praslin before heading to La Digue, where village life exists at a slower pace. There are very few cars here, with bicycles the main mode of transport and traditional ox carts used to move both people and produce from one place to the next. The natural environment is very much a part of island life and it’s not hard to see why. Large, smooth ancient granite boulders rest on the water’s edge, partitioning secluded bays and it’s easy to feel off the beaten track as you hike back towards your resort in the island’s centre.
