Mahe

This is one of the most lively cities in Seychelles, and they celebrate New Year with much glitz. Just go to Baie Lazare beach, take your bikinis and beers along to watch the fireworks crack up the sky from the water! If you are someone who prefers quality time over booze and parties, visit Takamaka Bay and Intendance beach.

La Digue

This place is the heart of Seychelles and offers some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Amongst them, one beach that holds a special place in our heart is Pink Sand Beach. 

This place is famous for giant tortoises as well. If you too want to watch them, here's a piece of friendly advice for you- do not spend a bomb by booking expensive cruises and visit Curieuse island to see them.

Food

Finding places to eat without burning a hole in your pocket easier than you think. There are many good street food options available, and you won't have to spend thousands of bucks in restaurants. If you want to save more, carry instant food, munchies, juice packs with you.

Also, if you don't like Seychellois cuisine or are vegetarian, like me, let me tell you that there are 3 restaurants in Seychelles that serve authentic Indian food.

Things To Keep In Mind

1. The local currency is Seychelles Rupees. 1 SCR = Approx. 5 INR.
2. Most of their prices are in Euros owing to the large European population.
3. The majority of population speak English and French there.
