Where to go in Seychelles

With over 115 tiny white islands, glistening like pearls in the brilliant-turquoise Indian Ocean, the Seychelles brings a whole new meaning to the word ‘idyllic.’ Main islands Mahe and Praslin offer high-octane glamour alongside the endlessly perfect beaches, but there’s also more to the archipelago than first meets the eye. For back-to nature experiences, try Fregate Island with its jumbo tortoises shuffling along the beach, Desroches for the profusions of wild and colourful orchids or La Digue to spot the aptly names Paradise Fly-catchers. So whether you’re looking for a sun-lounger and a cocktail on the hour, every hour or a Robinson Crusoe escapade, add the Seychelles to your list.
