Seychelles
Mahe Island
When you come from over the seas into the Seychelles, it will be on Mahé Island your plane will touch down. Of the Seychelles' 81,000 populace, over 90% make home in this biggest Seychelles island, thus it best represents the country’s culture. This is where you’ll find Victoria, the country’s capital and most citified, a major tourist destination.
Since tourism touched down on its runways not too long ago, the Seychellois have made sure that its voyage to "progress" has been slow and syncopated. Mahé is the placid compromise for those who want the best of both worlds: fabulous beaches, nature escapades, cultural expeditions, sophisticated shopping, ethnic village markets, luxury hotels and hang loose.
