A Nomad Guide: 7 Things to Do in Seychelles

Live the Island Life

A lot of people hear Seychelles and the first thing they’ll be thinking about is probably a beach. And no wonder they do. That’s why our first pick of Seychelles activities involves the beach.

Some of our best go-to Seychelles beaches are the Anse Georgette beach on Praslin island. Though open to the public, Anse Georgette beach cove is not as crowded because it is located on the grounds of Lemuria Resort, limiting the number of visitors.

Go Island-Hopping

Explore the giant tortoises and watch baby Hawksbill sea turtles make their way to the sea on Cousin Island. Be amazed by the Mango forests on Curieuse Island. And best of all, enjoy the unique characteristics of each Seychelles island beach.

Enjoy an Underwater Adventure

Snorkeling, glass-bottom boat excursions, free diving, and scuba diving let you explore the rich diversity of marine life underwater. It is also an ideal way to get up close and personal with manta rays, turtles, and sharks cruising through the blue.

Experience Local Culture

Another on our list of fun things to do in Seychelles is to experience local culture. We think one of the best ways to get to know a country is to immerse yourself in its people and culture.

Seychellois love to share their thoughts on Creole food and culture. You can feel the market’s enthusiasm from the vendors and locals buying their produce. It’s also visible evidence of the excellent mix of the old and new Seychellois lifestyle. We advise you to go early in the morning when the sun is not yet hot, and there are still few tourists.

Conquer the Mountains

Your Seychelles travel should not be limited to the country’s coastlines alone. If you already had your fill of Seychelles beaches, then maybe it’s time to conquer the mountains. Seychelles has rich tropical forests and jungles for those who prefer nature trails. Immerse yourself in some gorgeous nature trails.

Morne Seychellois National Park

If you’re a nature lover who prefers more moderate activities to do in Seychelles, a guided tour of Morne Seychellois National Park is a must. Be awed by the diversity of flora and fauna while you trail the mix blend of mangroves, tall mountains, and lush tropical jungles.

Coco de Mer Vallée De Mai

The Coco de Mer Vallée De Mai is one of two UNESCO heritage sites in Seychelles. It is part of a nature reserve that covers a large part of Praslin’s interior. This UNESCO World Heritage Site on Praslin island is a natural palm jungle of coco de Mer palm, indigenous to Seychelles.

Play Golf

Golf is another one of Seychelles’ activities that do not involve water. Well, sort of. We might be biased about this, but we just love playing golf. And if you are a golf enthusiast like us, you should include playing a round of golf (or two) on things to do in Seychelles.

Go on a Helicopter Tour

Experience flying in style and luxury as you take an aerial tour of the Seychelles islands. There’s a 15, 130, and 90-minute scenic flights to take you on various themed experiences. Explore the diverse lagoon of Seychelles from above and opt for a private picnic in the most secluded spots.
