In your dreams you might have seen yourself on the perfect
paradise
island , or imagined unbroken expanses
of powder white beaches, lapped by amazing azure waters,
home to the many species of marine life. The Seychelles
is where that fantasy comes true - 155 jewels of island
studded around the Indian Ocean, awaiting your discovery.
Few places in the world offer such stunning verdant landscapes
or such an hospitable welcome, as do the Seychelles, every
island is truly unique, each a tiny secluded paradise,
rich in nature reserves and marine parks.
Our Seychelles, island hopping option gives guests the
opportunity to spend a handful of days on two or three
islands, discovering and experiencing their different
atmospheres. Regular light aircraft flights, helicopter
and boat transfers make travel between your chosen islands
simple. Will it be the exclusive hideaway of Sainte Anne,
or remote and unspoiled Alphonse ? possibly Tranquil Praslin
with the unique Coco de Mer, or the ornithologist's delight
of Bird Island,. Suggested itineraries are included to
whet your appetite.
Bird Life : Almost every island seems to have some rare
species of bird, four of the islands are actually bird
sanctuaries.
Fishing is a way of life in the seychelles, there will
always be a local with a boat, many clients just visit
for a quite seychelles fishing holiday - and to as one
with nature.
The mainstay of the islands' economy is tourism, with
some 150,000 visitors to the Seychelles annually.
The islands that make-up the 'Seychelles' are relatively
small in area and the roads (particularly around Mahe)
are littled travelled. Walking and hiking are therefore
great alternatives to the beaches, where one can escape
and appreciate the scenery and natural beauty of the wild
and hilly mountainous areas all around.
Over the past several decades, more and more artists and
crafts-people have settled in the Seychelles, today there
is quite a vibrant cottage industry serving the souvenir
and tourist market.
Skimpy beachwear is okay to wear for the hotel and beaches,
but you may attract lingering gazes if worn elsewhere.
There are many secluded beaches for those wishing to bathe
topless.
Seychelles holidays are an expensive destination by comparison
to other holiday locations, so it's important for visitors
not to arrive on a shoestring budget. However photographic
equipment and supplies such as films, it would be cost
effective to take ones own, rather then purchase on the
Seychelles. Major credit cards are accepted in most shops,
restaurants etc; and banks give cash advances against
the cards.
For contrast, the Seychelles, combines the peaceful
setting of the islands, with a more busy
cultural week staying at Dubai; or if you're feeling adventurous
safari in South Africa.

you choose, we're confident that our selection of hand-picked
properties and luxury hotels and accommodation will more
than satisfy your widest dreams.
Peak seasons are usually December through to January and
July to August , the best diving, to see the mass array
of marine life is March to May and September to November.
