Honeymoon in Seychelles
Once you have arrived in the Republic of Seychelles, an archipelago nation of 115 islands in the Indian Ocean about 1600km east from Africa, I am sure you will leave all the bad memories away and will be thrilled from the moment you will lay your eyes on the beautiful sights. You are not sure if what you're seeing is something made on a computer or if it's real.For those that plan a honeymoon in Seychelles, you should know that the best time of the year is in July with a great weather, temperatures from 25C to 30C (77F to 86F) and outside of the cyclones' areas. You should also know that from November to May the chances to rain are pretty big, so make sure you choose your dates wisely.
Choosing accommodation in Seychelles
If you haven't opted for a hotel from the beginning you should know that you can choose one of the rustic villas that will assure all your necessary comfort to make your stay great. Choose from the ones that are directly on the beach with a water view, or those that you can see on the small hills filled with luxuriant green palms.
What to do in Seychelles
Seychelles islands
Once settled at the hotel or villa, and after smooching enough, start with the Islands. Use a rented car ($70 a day), take the bus (3 rupee per ticket - $1=6.4 rupees) or if you want to make some trips between the islands use the catamaran for an extreme experience. The most important islands are Mahe, Praslim, Silhouette and La Digue, while the others are islands where nature seems to be untouched. Also, look for the islands guide (in English) that will sure help.Seychelles Ste Anne Marine National Park
Another great place to visit is the Ste Anne Marine National Park which is formed from many smaller islands, just a few kilometers away from Mahe. Here you get to see the ornithological and marine reservation, you can go snorkeling to see lots of exotic fish with live colors can be found or pet the gigantic tortoise that you can only find here or in Galapagos. You may also choose the daily excursion to the three smaller islands Cerf, Round and Moyenne, that every tourism agency in the area offers.Botanical garden of Mont Fleuri
This is another place you can go. I mean that's a must if you love plants and would love to peace your mind. Here you get to see the unique Coco de Mer palm that grows 25-34m tall. The fruit is called sea coconut, double coconut, coco feese or Seychelles nut, thanks to the dimensions 40-50cm in diameter. Visit it daily form 6am to 6pm.Silhouette Island
Silhouette Island is 20km NW of Mahe and is the third largest island. It is surrounded completely by a coral barrier so imagine what snorkeling would be around these areas. It's also worth visiting the tropical forest that you usually need to walk to. The small mountain on the island is 620m high so imagine what the view is all about.Go fishing in the Seychelles
I am not sure how thrilled your loved one will be, but if you both share the same passion, fishing, it's worth taking some time and relax for one day. You know you can catch a barracuda?I will cover food and hotels in depth in a future article. SO long for now and hope you have a great honeymoon, if not a honeymoon then just a great vacation.
