Seychelles Holidays
The Seychelles archipelago consists of 115 diverse islands which are delicately scattered like jewels in the sapphire blue waters of the Indian Ocean.
The islands are renowned for their immaculate, uncrowded beaches and unspoilt tropical hideaways. But for all their similarities, there’s also so much that makes the islands different. With a diverse range of things to do and sights to see, each of the islands has its own unique appeal.
