Why visit Seychelles if not for the crystalline sands, the pristine waters and the skies that blend seamlessly into it? A collection of 115 islands in the vast Indian Ocean, every island on Seychelles has a beach of unique beauty. Adding specks of brilliant energy to this serenity are rare fauna like the Aldabra tortoise. Amidst such brilliant life form, you will find something for everyone.
If you are not overly fond of immersing yourself in the great blue sea, but loves the sound of waves crashing on the beach and the warm tingle of sea foam coating your toes, Anse Source d’Argent beach is your dream destination. With palm trees fringing the shore, natural boulders standing guard over the vacationer, this is a glistening paradise with vibrant corals making a home for even more vibrant fish. If you seek solitude and seclusion from the weary world, heading over to Petite Anse – a little way off from the popular Grand Anse beach – should be on your itinerary. Seek assistance from one of the many Seychelles Resorts with their benevolent staff to pack a picnic meal, settle on the bright whites of a crescent shore and indulge in much-required me-time – with an occasional seagull to check up on your progress.
A chant of as many verses as the number of islands in Seychelles would not suffice to do justice to the stunning beaches that will catch your eye at every turn. It is not for naught that branches of major chains such as AVANI Seychelles Barbarons Resort and Spa call Seychelles their home, and offer a number of options to tie the knot in a stunning backdrop. It is quite common to find couples roaming the sand hand in hand, leaving footprints on the saline sands that are restored to their immaculate condition by the ceaseless waves. Whether you travel solo, as a couple or family; whether you seek out the most isolated beach or sit by the private beach of your resort; you will not be able to escape the feeling of living in a postcard, on your visit to Seychelles.
