Why this trip
Palms that bear the coco de mer, the largest seed in the world: Praslin is the second island of the Seychelles and considerably quieter than Mahé. The national park in the interior is a primeval forest with rare birds. Petite Anse Lazio is a beach of fine sand between granite boulders and is regarded as one of the most beautiful in the region. If you want space, go early, because then the bay is almost empty.
Anse Georgette is accessible and is a beach with a hotel, Anse Volbert a long, shallow stretch that suits children. Fond Ferdinand offers guided hikes through coconut palms and jungle, and tortoises live in the Tortoise Sanctuary. The catalogue lists Paradise Sun Hotel, Constance Lemuria Praslin, Le Duc De Praslin and Coco de Mer Hotel. The periods from April to May and from October to November are especially mild.
La Digue lies nearby and can be reached by ferry, Mahé and Victoria serve as the entrance. Divers find a start at local dive centres. Island Escapes checks the ferry times and builds in buffers so that you do not miss the calm of the island.
