Seychelles is an archipelago nation in the western Indian Ocean, scattered across a vast expanse of tropical sea roughly 1,500 kilometres east of the African mainland. The archipelago comprises 115 islands of two distinct types - the Inner Islands, a cluster of ancient granitic islands of extraordinary beauty centred on the main island of Mahé, and the Outer Islands, a sweep of low-lying coral atolls and sand cays stretching far to the south-west. The granitic islands of Seychelles are unique in the world - the only oceanic islands composed of granite rather than volcanic or coral material - their rounded boulders, lush vegetation, and turquoise bays creating a landscape of a beauty so distinctive that it has become one of the most iconic images of the tropical Indian Ocean.
Mahé, the largest island and home to the capital Victoria - the smallest capital city in the world - combines a lively Creole town with a forested interior of remarkable richness, its Morne Seychellois National Park protecting the majority of the island's tropical forest and the endemic species within it. Praslin, the second largest island, is home to the Vallée de Mai - a primeval palm forest and UNESCO World Heritage Site that shelters the coco de mer, the world's largest seed, and the rare black parrot found nowhere else on earth. Explore related settings through our UNESCO Sites, Beaches and Scenic Views collections.
The natural environment of Seychelles is of global conservation significance, with the archipelago protecting some of the most important seabird colonies, marine turtle nesting beaches, and coral reef ecosystems in the Indian Ocean. Aldabra Atoll, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the largest raised coral atolls in the world, shelters the world's largest population of giant tortoises - over 100,000 individuals - along with frigatebirds, boobies, and an extraordinary marine environment largely undisturbed by human activity.

Seychellois culture is a warm and distinctive blend of African, French, British, Indian, and Chinese influences, expressed through a Creole language and cuisine of great character, a tradition of sega and moutya music rooted in the islands' complex colonial and slavery history, and a relaxed, unhurried way of life shaped by the rhythms of the Indian Ocean. The islands consistently rank among the most sought-after luxury travel destinations in the world, yet their extraordinary natural environment, rigorous conservation ethic, and unique cultural identity give them a depth that extends well beyond their reputation for pristine beaches and exclusive resorts.
