From Mah\u00e9 embark on a half- or full-day fishing expedition, around 40 kilometres offshore there are sharp drops of up to 2 000 metres. The archipelago hosts six major fishing tournaments each year and boasts the best mixed-bag catches in the world, such as sailfish, barracuda, tuna, swordfish, shortbill spearfish and black marlin. It also holds a number of International Game Fish Records. Due to conservation efforts, tag and release is widely practised, which protects fish stocks.

Take to the waters around Praslin in a catamaran for a day-long island hopping expedition with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.creoletravelservices.com\/\"><span class=\"s2\">Creole Travel Services<\/span><\/a>. You&#8217;ll see the cast of <i>Finding Nemo<\/i> as you snorkel in the shallows of the coral reefs and hopefully you too will swim among turtles as you sail between Coco, Sister and Felicite islands. Sleep off the fish braai in the sun on the catamaran&#8217;s trampoline as you head back to Praslin.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In search of the coco de mer and Black Parrot in Valle De Mai<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-54998\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/7-Black-parrot.jpg\" alt=\"7 Black parrot seychelles tourism board\" width=\"780\" height=\"522\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"> Courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/seychelles.tourismboard\/\" target=\"_blank\">Seychelles Tourism Board<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In the primeval forest of <a href=\"http:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/en\/list\/261\"><span class=\"s2\">Vall<\/span>\u00e9<span class=\"s2\">e De Mai Nature Reserve<\/span><\/a><\/span><span class=\"s3\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">on Praslin Island you&#8217;ll find the male and female plant of the coco de mer palm, which can&#8217;t be found elsewhere in the world. Both plants display &#8216;fruits&#8217; that are evocatively representative of their gender: a double nut with erotic curves and a rather suggestive phallus. It&#8217;s for this reason that it&#8217;s often called the love nut. This UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site, which some myths claim to be the original Garden of Eden, is also home to the very rare Black Parrot and is a must for nature lovers. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Cycle La Digue<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The best way to get from one beach to the next on the quaint island of La Digue is by bicycle and you can easily cycle the entire island in a day. Sometimes you will barely cycle 100 metres before discovering yet another untouched beach, with no one else in sight. My favourite beach was Grand Anse, from there walk through the forest to Petite Anse. Another unbeatable beach that shows off the island&#8217;s characteristic giant granite boulders is Anse Patates in the north. Most guest houses offer free bicycle rentals, otherwise you can rent one when you arrive at the harbour. At sundown reward yourself for all that hard legwork with a drink at the <a href=\"https:\/\/web.facebook.com\/www.fishtraprestau.sc\/?_rdr\"><span class=\"s2\">Fish Trap Restaurant and Bar<\/span><\/a>.

Seafood is always on the menu, try the ever popular line-caught shark chutney or the famous octopus curry. The best meal I had was at the <span class=\"s2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.treasurecove.sc\/index.html\">Treasure Cove<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span class=\"s1\">boutique hotel after a dip in the infinity pool that looks out to the sunset. If you&#8217;re really feeling adventurous you can also buy fresh seafood from the Sir Selwyn Selwyn Clarke Market or from local fishermen.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Good to know before you go<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Flights<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A direct flight from O.R Tambo International Airport to Victoria on Mah\u00e9 Island in the Seychelles takes five hours. Earlier this year, the national carrier, <span class=\"s2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.airseychelles.com\/\">Air Seychelles<\/a>,<\/span><\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0expanded its flight services to five-per-week from Wednesday through to Sunday. The airline also has a codeshare partnership with South African Airways so you can easily connect to Johannesburg from Durban, East London, Port Elizabeth and Cape Town. And once there, their domestic fleet flies more than 200 times weekly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Book great flights to the Seychelles <a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelstart.co.za\/lp\/praslin-seychelles\/flights\">here<\/a>.<\/h3>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Visa<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Seychelles is a hassle-free destination to travel to. South Africans don&#8217;t require a visa, all you&#8217;ll need is a valid passport for six more months, a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and money in your wallet otherwise Mastercard and Visa are widely accepted. You won&#8217;t need any vaccinations or medication either, as it&#8217;s Malaria-free and there&#8217;s no risk of contracting Yellow Fever.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Climate and time difference<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Seychelles boasts a tropical climate year-round and temperatures seldom drop below 24&#8217;c or rise above 33&#8217;c. The archipelago lies outside the cyclone belt, so it doesn&#8217;t experience weather extremes. October to May is the best time of year for scuba diving and water sports. The Seychelles is four hours ahead of GMT, or two hours ahead of South African Standard Time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Transport<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It&#8217;s affordable and safe to take the well-maintained local busses, although naturally the journey will take longer than a private air-conditioned taxi. The bus drivers were friendly and willing to exchange large bank notes when they realised I was a tourist. Marlon Panagary was my knowledgeable driver on Mah\u00e9, he&#8217;s contactable on whatsapp and charges \u20ac150 per day: +248-252-6770. Fly or ferry between islands.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Budget<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A holiday in the Seychelles doesn&#8217;t come cheap, however it&#8217;ll possibly be the best island holiday you&#8217;ll ever have, which will leave you with an insatiable yearning to return.
