Why this trip
The largest island of the Seychelles is not an island to pass through, even though the airport is there. Mahé has granite rocks, wooded hills and bays that stay quiet as soon as you leave the main road. If you plan a few days, you will find much more than Victoria. At Anse Royale Beach the sand lies long and wide, and the water is usually calm.
Two marine protected areas invite excursions: the Saint-Anne Marine National Park with its islands and Baie Ternay with corals and seagrass. Hikers choose the Copolia Trail or the Morne Blanc Trail, both with views across the island. Children like the Semi-Submarine, a boat with underwater windows. In the catalogue you will find Le Nautique Luxury Beachfront Apartments, Kempinski Seychelles Resort, Club Med Seychelles and Four Seasons Resort Seychelles.
The best time is April and May as well as October and November. Praslin and La Digue are the nearest destinations and can be reached by ferry, which Private Islands plans with buffer times. Mahé often serves as the start before the quieter islands follow.
