Anse Lazio Beach Escape
Frequently listed among the world’s best beaches, Anse Lazio is pure paradise. Think powdery white sand, crystal-clear turquoise water, and granite boulders framed by palm trees. It’s perfect for a swim, snorkel, or just lazing under the sun with a good book. A dreamy beach day that feels untouched and totally serene.
Curieuse Island Day Trip
Just off Praslin’s coast lies Curieuse Island — a sanctuary for giant Aldabra tortoises and red mangrove forests. A guided day trip here includes forest walks, historical ruins, beach time, and often a BBQ lunch on the sand. It’s a well-rounded mix of wildlife, nature, and chill island vibes.
Fishing Trip with Local Crew (from Mahé/Praslin)
Hop aboard with a local crew for a day of deep-sea or reef fishing. Cast for tuna, snapper, and barracuda while soaking in epic sea views. Most trips include snacks or a lunch cooked on deck. A laid-back, authentic way to connect with Seychelles’ seafaring traditions.
Fond Ferdinand Nature Reserve
This lesser-known reserve rivals Vallée de Mai with even more biodiversity and fewer crowds. The guided hike winds through dense tropical forest up to a spectacular panoramic viewpoint overlooking the inner islands. Along the way, spot unique palms, reptiles, and vibrant birdlife. A hidden gem for eco-enthusiasts.
Island Hopping by Boat or Helicopter
See the Seychelles from sea or sky as you hop between Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue. Helicopter tours reveal stunning coral-ringed atolls and turquoise lagoons, while boats offer up-close views of hidden beaches and granite cliffs. Perfect for special occasions or simply leveling up your island escape.
Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve (UNESCO)
Step into a Jurassic-like forest where the legendary Coco de Mer palm grows wild. This UNESCO-listed reserve is quiet, shaded, and mysterious — home to the rare black parrot and centuries-old trees. With winding trails and an otherworldly atmosphere, it feels like time stands still here. Nature lovers and photographers will find it absolutely magical.
