| Almost every description of the Seychelles appears to be a bit
over the top. Is it only the easily impressed who get to visit and
write about the Seychelles? The magic of these islands is however
real. Impressions gained of this dream island paradise will be your
refuge when you return to those long working hours. Just like
everybody imagines paradise, the Seychelles islands are far away,
peaceful and stunningly beautiful. It is the peace and quiet that attracted the writer Somerset Maugham when he sought to work on a novel without interruption. Most visitors do not however come here to work. The main draw of the islands has always been the beaches, snorkeling and diving. The attractions of the natural world particularly the birdlife, tropical fish and the unique physical environment are a bonus. |
| After your holiday you may want to impress your friends by these
two facts. The Seychelles islands are the only mid ocean island
group in the world with a granite rock formation. And that Aldabra,
a UNESCO designated World Heritage Site is the largest coral atoll
in the world. Some will of course not understand what you are
talking about but the point will be clear that you have traveled to
a place of distinction. Jacques Costeau whose part of the documentary, The Silent World was shot in the Seychelles said that he had never been anywhere else with such clarity of water or diversity of reef life. The islands are also a good place to get married and to enjoy the tropical honeymoon of your life. Few other destinations can beat the combination of beauty and romance. For this and other reasons I cannot go through here, It is my firmly held position that visitors who get married here go on to a happy married life are sooner joined by cute little ones! I have prepared an info pack to assist those who wish to get married in the Seychelles. This includes: legal requirements, what documents to carry, wedding and honeymoon packages and much more.

| The Seychelles is a year round destination. But if you must
undertake a specific activity, then you need to pick the most
suitable season. Windsurfing and sailing are best at the start and
end of the trade winds - May and October. Diving enthusiasts should
go for dates between March and May or September to November,
although conditions are excellent year round. Those keen on the birdlife should note that April marks the beginning of the breeding season. Bird Island, in particular is overrun by sea birds between May and September. Due to drier conditions, the period May to September has best conditions for hiking and walking. The other factor you may want to consider is cost. The Seychelles
is considered to be a top-drawer destination. In general, the peak
falls between mid December-early January and mid July-end August
when most hotels trade in the currency known as top-dollar. The
off-season periods vary with each establishment much more widely
than most other destinations. |
