Why Visit Seychelles
The Seychelles are home to some of the world's most photographed beaches — Anse Source d'Argent on La Digue, with its towering pink granite boulders, is an icon of the Indian Ocean.
Aldabra Atoll, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the planet's largest raised coral atolls and shelters one of the world's largest populations of giant tortoises.
The archipelago spans inner granite islands ideal for honeymooners and the remote outer coral islands where birdlife and marine biodiversity are extraordinary.
The Seychelles offers world-class scuba diving, with pristine coral gardens, whale sharks, manta rays and hawksbill turtles in protected marine reserves.

Travel Tips
Inter-island travel relies on domestic flights and ferry services — book in advance as capacity can be limited, especially during peak season.
The Seychelles is a mid-to-high budget destination; self-catering guesthouses (called "self-catering villas") offer a more affordable alternative to luxury resorts.
Entry conditions and visa requirements can change. Always confirm current rules with the relevant embassy or a Ramada Tours consultant before travel.
