PLACES TO VISIT IN SEYCHELLES

Good Visiting Places in Seychelles for Your Holiday

The Republic of Seychelles is made up of 115 islands offering an amazing diversity of experiences for visitors and an ever-widening choice of spectacular venues for an unforgettable tropical island holiday. The Seychelles are not generally renown for Mediterranean style activities - day time is for de stressing and getting in tune with nature whilst the evenings and nights are generally for dining and what you make of them yourself.

The early colonial history of Seychelles is infamous for the disappearance of most of the giant tortoises from the granitic islands, felling of coastal and mid-level forests and extinction of species such as the chestnut flanked white eye, the Seychelles parakeet and the saltwater crocodile. The Seychelles today is known for success stories in protecting its flora and fauna. Conservation started in the 1960s by a small group of local enthusiasts.

Of all the Seychelles' islands only 16 have hotels, some of which offer luxurious amenities and the ultimate in 4 and 5-star wedding or honeymoon experiences. Seychelles is paradise - Seychelles is where your fantasies can become realities.

Although many of the conservation laws date back to British colonial days, the Seychelles government has strictly protected the natural heritage of the islands for many years. Flagship species, the Seychelles Magpie Robin and the Seychelles Warbler, have been spectacularly rescued from the brink of extinction by BirdLife International, Nature Seychelles, Islands Conservation Society, private islands and the government. These birds, once restricted to one island each, have been translocated to many others. Seychelles has 12 endemic bird species including the Seychelles black paradise flycatcher, scops owl, white eye, swiftlet, kestrel, Seychelles blue pigeon and sunbird.
