Best things to do: Aside from your Seychelles boat tour, what else should you be doing while soaking up the sun? Visiting other beaches will be a good start! You’ll visit plenty on your boat tour, but there are a few worth noting. Anse Source d’Argent and Anse Intendance are two such places. Other top places include Morne Blanc Trail. It takes you through the forest and then presents panoramic coastal views to enjoy. And Beau Vallon Beach is popular for snorkelling and eateries.
Local customs: You’ll find the Seychellois are very welcoming and enjoy the company of strangers. If you greet someone, then a shake of the hand is the customary greeting and if you are invited to visit a home, well taking a gift will be a good way to ensure a good time will be had by all. Just don’t go there in your swimwear. Best to save those items of clothing for the beach.
Tropical paradise: Heading to Seychelles means you’re in tropical surroundings and that also means it’s hot and humid all year round. Be aware that Monsoon season is between November to March, and it can feel uncomfortably humid during this time.
• Crocodiles once roamed in these parts. Don’t fear the chances of coming across one are very rare! Once though crocodiles lived in Seychelles. The first settlers came across the saltwater crocs and had major issues! It’s thought they became extinct on the island around 1819!
• It wasn’t until 1770 when the first settlers arrived on the island, meaning there are actually no indigenous people. Pirates used Seychelles as a stopover point, but other than that it was uninhabited. A bit different today. It’s now a melting pot of cultures!
• There’s a lot of water around the islands. So much so, that the landmass across the 115 islands makes up only 0.03% of Seychelles! That’s around 459km2 of landmass.
