The Beaches in Seychelles
The Most Beautiful Beaches In The World
If you want to plan a vacation in the Seychelles to enjoy its paradisiacal beaches, here is an overview of the most beautiful beaches where you can relax and enjoy incredible water sports.
What To Do
Lined with coconut palms and Takamakas, the white sandy beaches of Seychelles are often surrounded by large granite rocks. This type of landscape is mainly discovered on the islands of Mahé, Praslin, La Digue and Saint-Anne. To take advantage of these paradise beaches of these Seychelles islands, we advise you to plan your trip in March, April, May or June. As the water is warm all year round, these months will allow you to avoid the tourist crowds of summer and end of year celebrations so you can indulge in exploring the seabed in peace. In the Seychelles, the beaches are also a good opportunity to relax, swim, paddle, kayak or even snorkeling.
