Wrapped in the velvety waters of the Indian Ocean, the Seychelles dazzles with silky soft sandy beaches, turquoise lagoons and spectacular landscapes. More than just beach bliss, the Seychelles is also home to an abundance of wild flowers, exotic birds, colourful coral and rare wildlife such as turtles, manta rays and Aldabra giant tortoises. Mountains are covered in rainforests and shorelines are decorated with granite boulders.
