Are

chosen the Seychelles?Congratulations on your travel destination! It hasbeen blessed with picturesque beaches,
white topaz waters, lush forests and renowned giant granite boulders, which create
a surreal atmosphere.
It
is said that after God created the world, He was left with a handful of
diamonds. Just then, He turned His gaze to eastern Africa and decided to create
there a place of unprecedented splendor. He threw diamonds in the ocean and
they turned into Seychelles.
The
archipelago consists of 115 islands and we guarantee you will have a great time
on each of them. Irrespective whichone of three main islands you choose- Praslin,
La Digue or Mahé(Turtle Island or the Island of Birds), your stay will be
excellent.
Mahé,
the largest of the islands, is home to the capital, Victoria, and to about 90 %
of the population. Named in honor of Mahéof Labourdonnais, the governor of Mauritius
in the eighteenth century, the island houses rare plants in the mountains and
foreststhat are no longer found anywhere in the world. Jellyfish trees,
carnivorous plants and thevanilla orchid are just some of them. It is no
surprise that the island offers so many options for fun and adventure – it is a
paradise that everyone must explore.
If
you happen to get bored on the beach, under palm trees or swinging in a
hammock, you can go visit the Aldabra Atoll, which was included in the UNESCO
World Heritagefor its purity. It is famous for the more than 150,000 giant
tortoises that live ther - the largest community of this kind in the world and
the richest marine life community in the entire archipelago.
Let’s have a look at some of the famous
beaches of Seychelles.
Because
beaches in Seychelles are more than simple strips of sand and because tourists always
come back saying they are the most beautiful beaches in the world, it's time to
talk about some of them, to give you an idea of how the most popular beaches
look like.

Anse Source d' Argent
One
of the most photographed beaches in the world, for which the archetypal
expression "heaven on earth"wascreated,Anse Source d' Argent is
spectacular due to its enormous granite boulders, with unique shapes carved by
wind and rain. Located near a reef ideal for snorkeling, and for holidays with
small children due to the tranquil waters, this beach is simply splendid.

delightful location for snorkeling and swimming, with waters that come alive
with thousands of multicolored fish, Anse Royale is split by granite boulders
in numerous small gulfs. With a little bit of luck, you can choose your own gulf,
overshadowed by palm trees and the Takamakatrees.

Anse Lazio
Listed
by most tourists among the most beautiful beaches in the Seychelles, everyone
agrees that Anse Lazio is very close to a natural paradise, as it must have
been in the beginning of time, when man had not yet discovered every corner of
the earth.
