Valentine Vacation in Seychelles



On the special occasion of Valentine's Day, want to feel the warmth of your sweetheart's embrace you wished upon a lucky star someday? But that cozy moment needs a perfect cocooned backdrop to happen. The tropical paradise of Seychelles with its sun-basked secluded beaches and its crystalline calm sea makes it a very relaxing Valentine's break. With 115 granitic and coralline islands, Seychelles wears an emerald necklace spreading over a million square kilometers on the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, northeast of Madagascar. The granitic islands bunch around the prime island of Mahe, whereas the coralline forms a glowing arc towards East Africa. Most of Seychelles remains a virgin isolated world, yet to be spoiled by modernization. Mahe, Praslin and La Digue are the chief Seychelles islands that offer an array of adorable memories to cherish. A relaxing cruise for a few days ignites the exotic spark of romance when you wake up to the gentle rocking of your catamaran and the whisper of the lapping water tempts you for a dive into the pristine water for snorkeling and swimming.

Great news for those who are looking for flora and fauna in Seychelles! From the tiniest frog to the bulkiest land tortoise and the only flightless bird of the Indian Ocean, Seychelles is the abode of several endemic and extinct animal and bird species.

The world's largest raised coral reef and also the Vallee de Mai on Praslin Island, billed as the original site of the Garden of Eden, Seychelles is the home to 81 endemic plant species like the jelly fish tree. Seychelles with her colorful marine life provides the best snorkeling and diving experience, along with fishing, water skiing, sea kayaking, hobie sailing, and land activities like bird watching and golf.

Seychelles offers a racially mixed background of exotic cooking, like the tasty Bourzwa fish, the fillet of parrot fish in Creole sauce, the Octopus dish dipped in fresh coconut cream, the Millionaire's Salad and the Curried fruit bat. The islands of Mahe, Praslin and La Digue provide great accommodation facilities from luxury hotels and resorts, rented villas to lodges and bungalows. Some renowned hotels are Le Meridien Barbarons and Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa, Mahe; Acajou Hotel and Le Relax Beach Resort, Praslin Island; and Chateau St. Cloud Hotel in La Digue Island.
