Why this trip

Victoria is one of the smallest capitals in the world, with a market, a clock tower and a harbour where ferries and fishing boats dock. Located on Mahé, it serves as the gateway to the Seychelles, and those who know it travel on more calmly afterwards. The morning market shows fish, spices and fruit, a stroll takes an hour. Afterwards excursions are worthwhile: the Copolia Trail leads through forest to granite rocks with a view, the Morne Blanc Trail is similar, the Semi-Submarine shows children the reef, and tours can be booked through local operators.

The Saint-Anne Marine National Park lies off the town and offers snorkelling in clear water. The catalogue lists VallonEnd Beachfront Villa and Avani+ Barbarons Seychelles. The best months are April to May and October to November. From Victoria you reach Praslin and La Digue by ferry, which for travellers who want stillness is the real purpose.

For seclusion, leave the town: in the bays of the island there are beaches that are almost empty in the evening. Island Escapes plans arrival, ferry times and buffers in the video call and makes sure you do not stay in the town longer than necessary.
