SEYCHELLES

SEYCHELLES
 
An island nation, Seychelles is located in the Indian Ocean, northeast of Madagascar and about 1,600 km (994 mi) east of Kenya. Calm azure waters, deserted beaches, tropical paradise and turquoise lagoons define Seychelles.This string of islands offers sparkling clear waters framed with white sandy beaches and coral reefs bustling with a rainbow of sea life. 


The temperature range in Seychelles mostly is between 24°C and 32°C making Seychelles a year round destination for beach lovers. The rains come down in January and February to rejuvenate the rivers and streams. In May through to September the atmosphere in Seychelles is cooler and drier with active seas. The hot months are from December to April with March and April being the hottest months, but the temperature seldom exceeds 31 °C (88 °F). Most of the islands lie outside the cyclone belt, so high winds are rare.
The Seychelles is ideal for any time of the year for a self-indulgent, laid-back, lazy holiday offering a sanctuary for purging all the toxins everyday life introduces in form of traffic noise and inhaling toxic fumes while in traffic. 

Famous for their luxurious resorts, Seychelles has many exotic spas and fine-dining restaurants, these islands offer an exclusive hideaway from the World as we know it. For visitors who can tear themselves away from the beaches and water sports, the Seychelles offers a wide variety of other things to do.


There is a lot to see in Seychelles from the prehistoric rainforest of Praslin’s National Park to the 70 beaches of Mahé, all is beauty and calm. You could take an excursion to Mahé’s capital, Victoria, to admire its colonial mansions and meet the giant tortoises at the botanical gardens. You can visit tiny islands such as beautiful La Digue, perhaps joining local fishermen in their boat for a day’s angling in the abundant waters.

 

The culture in Seychell's society is essentially matriarchal, Mothers tend to be dominant in the household, controlling most expenditure and looking after the interests of the children.

Staple foods include fish, seafood and shellfish dishes, often accompanied with rice. Also additional food staples include coconut, breadfruit, mangoes and kordonnyen fish. Dishes are often garnished with fresh flowers. 


Not only will Seychelles help you rejuvenate your soul it will aid in maintaining a healthy body as the food stapels are basically sea foods and fruits.
