Here are 7 reasons why Seychelles will be the perfect place to spend your family Christmas this year.

 

The Food Is Simply Delicious

 

Seychelles is a popular destination for foodies. The food here is simple, fresh and absolutely amazing. If you are coming to Seychelles for the food, you are definitely in the right place. There are numerous Indian Ocean restaurants that serve the best seafood, Indian and French cuisines.

Seychelles is also a great spot for vegan travellers. While vegan food is relatively rare in the Indian Ocean, you can find plenty of Indian restaurants and cafés that serve vegan dishes such as roti, thali, and dhal.

If you are a seafood lover, you will be delighted to know that Seychelles is one of the best places in the world to experience sushi.

 

The island is easy to explore.

 

If you’re looking for a place where your family can enjoy exploring the islands on their own, Seychelles is the perfect destination. The country has only about 100 islands, so it’s easy to drive around and see everything.

There are ferries that connect each island, but if you don’t want to wait at one stopover point, there’s also an airport in Mahé that serves as an international hub for flights coming into Seychelles from all over Africa and other parts of India Ocean.

You may also want to take advantage of helicopter tours while you’re here—they’ll give you an aerial view of each island and show what lies beyond them (like beautiful beaches).

 

There are gorgeous, family-friendly resorts.

 

The country is known for its beautiful beaches, turquoise waters and crystal clear waters that make for some of the best snorkelling in the world. There are also plenty of resorts where you can enjoy some quality time with your family.

If you’re planning on staying at one of these resorts, there will be plenty of things to keep everyone entertained—from kids’ clubs to adults-only pools and bars with live music every night! You can even book spa treatments at some hotels or get dressed up in your best vacation clothes and go out dancing on New Year’s Eve (if that’s what floats your boat).

 

There are fascinating animals to see

 

The Seychelles is home to exotic animals like the Aldabra giant tortoise, which can grow up to 6ft long and weigh more than 100lbs. The island’s most famous resident is its national bird—the Admiral’s plover. This brightly coloured bird has a long beak that looks like it belongs on a pirate ship!

Seychelles’s Natural Beauty Is Perfect for Photo Ops

The natural beauty of the country is something that will take your breath away. Explore the many beaches, where you can take pictures with the stunning scenery. You can also take pictures of the many reefs, which are perfect for snorkelling. The natural beauty of the country is also perfect for photo ops, with idyllic landscapes, secluded beaches, and a variety of colours.

 

You Can Escape the Crowds for Some Quiet Time

Seychelles is one of the most popular islands in the world, but it’s also one of the most peaceful places on earth. You can escape the crowds for some quiet time, and enjoy the privacy of a beach with no other people in sight. There are many beaches on the island, so you can choose the one that’s the right distance from town or the one that’s best for swimming.

If you want to get away from it all, you can rent a secluded bungalow or a villa on the island’s fringes. You can also explore the island’s interior, where you can find lush rainforest, a labyrinth of mangrove rivers and channels, and many ancient forts.

 

The Culture it Offers a Unique Experience

If you are looking for a unique experience, consider visiting the island’s diverse culture. The culture here is diverse and unique, with influences from French, African and Indian heritage.
