SPOTLIGHT ON THE SEYCHELLES ISLANDS
by sunways
The scattered islands of the Seychelles glitter with the promise of pristine white sands, graceful granite peaks and coral reefs teeming with tropical fish. Tourism still treads lightly here, and these magical islands remain a sanctuary for both discerning luxury travellers and the Seychelles’ spectacular wildlife.

Step ashore on islands such as Praslin and Cousin and you’ll feel like you’ve travelled back in time, the forest alive with the calls of exotic birds and tiny tree frogs. On land, giant tortoises thrive in surprising numbers, while beneath the surface of the turquoise seas swim reef sharks, eagle rays and Hawksbill turtles. The Seychelles is also home to remarkable endemic flora, including the famous coco de mer, with its giant fruits that weigh up to 30 kilos.
In between exploring the islands you’ll need somewhere to relax; luckily for you, the Seychelles is home to some of the world’s most desirable resorts. From plush pool villas overlooking tranquil bays to beachfront cottages dotted around private islands, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to selecting your perfect home away from home. Serene and secluded, exclusive yet authentic, the Seychelles is a place to reconnect with nature while enjoying the very best in luxury hospitality.
