Top Five: Things to do
1 Underwater world
The Seychelles has an amazing underwater world to explore which makes it a top spot for scuba diving and snorkelling. People of all levels can enjoy the incredible fish life as just stepping into the walm, turquoise waters is like stepping foot in an aquarium. There are some Marine parks to explore such as the corals in the Sainte Anne National Marine Park.
2 Island hop
There are many islands to explore in the Seychelles and they are all different, so it makes sense to fit try and fit in a few when taking a trip there. Most visitors choose a two or three-stop holiday, flying into the mainland of Mahé before heading off to explore one of the larger islands Praslin or Digue, before ending up on an isolated one-resort hideaway for that ultimate Robinson Crusoe experience.

3 Delicious food
Surrounded by sea life, its no wonder the food in the Seychelles is so delicious. The seafood is as fresh as can be and the Creole flavours are an experience not to be missed.
4 The natural world
Seychelles is an eco-tourism champion and almost half the landmass is a protected nature reserve. Inland there are jungle trails to explore and amazing wilderness housing rare birds and giant tortoises.
5 Coco de Mer
The gobsmacking Coco de Mer is the biggest nut in the world and the symbol of the Seychelles. You can only find it in the Vallée de Mai (a nature reserve and UNESCO heritage site) on Praslin Island.
