Comprised of 115 islands,Seychelles is the archipelago located in the Indian Ocean approximately 1,500 kilometers east of Southeast Africa’s mainland and northeast of Madagascar. Fascination with Seychelles is greatly due to the fact that the archipelago was uninhabited until the later part of the 18th century. Half of Seychelles’ 445 squared kilometers is occupied by the national parks and reserves in support of the government’s various environment and ecosystems protection policy.Preservation of the islands’ natural ecosystem is a priority because of Seychelles’ endemic species, which include: paradise flycatchers and the world’s largest and heaviest nut, the Coco de Mer.
Vacationing in Seychelles can’t be done right without experiencing its incredibly beautiful and warm waters—usually between 24 to 30 degrees Celsius—Mahé, Seychelles’largest island.
