r/Seychelles

Hello everyone

I recently moved to the seychelles and as someone who doesn’t have a car currently AND doesn’t know how to use the bus (even after going on the sptc app), i need help to figure out how to get from beau vallon to H3 gym in perseverance island (and then go back to beau vallon), like which bus to take, and what hours they operate etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated haha

I just booked a flight to the Seychelles in December. We will be staying for 14 nights. We are looking for a relaxed vacation to wind down. Since many of the beautiful beaches are on La Digue, and we like quiet places more than busy ones, I thought of staying in Mahé for only 4 nights and then 10 nights in La Digue. From there we could also do day trips to Praslin since it's only 15mins by ferry. I'd rather stay a bit longer at one place than being in a hurry with packing up etc. so I like the idea of only switching islands once. Is this a good idea? Or is La Digue too small to stay for that long and you suggest staying a few nights on Praslin as well? Happy to hear your thoughts 😊

Hi! We’re planning on going to the Seychelles for our honeymoon this September. We’re wondering if we’re making the right decisions planning-wise since it’ll be the first time for us to visit the Seychelles!
What we plan on doing now:
- 2 nights Mahé
- 3 nights Praslin
- 2 nights La Digue
- 4 nights Mahé
We’re reading lots of good stuff about La Digue, we’re wondering if our time there would be too short?
Please tell us your opinion on our planning so we could maybe switch some things around!

Hi, are there any ATMs in Seychelles where I can just tap my phone?

I’d like to use my Revolut but don’t have the physical card, just the card on my phone.

Also: when paying Euro in cash, do the vendors give very bad rates?

Would be grateful to hear from you!

Ill be visiting in August and wanted to figure out how to get some w33d or h@$h in Praslin ideally

Hi everyone, l wanted to ask your experience with transferring from an international flight and then going directly to the local flight to Praslin.
I will be arriving on a Sunday morning at 06:50 and then the local flight to Praslin will be at 07:40. How long would immigration plus bag collection + transfer to the next flight take and do you think this is doable or l should look at alternatives
Thank you for your answers

Hey everyone!!! I’m f18 and in about a week I’ll be headed to Seychelles. I’ll be going with my parents but they’ll be pretty busy most of the time so for the most part I’ll be alone. What do teenagers do for fun there? Like are there any clubs or bars? Or is this place strictly for couples and older people? I’ll be by myself for a good chunk of this trip, so I was hoping to make friends while I was there. Are there any fun activities you’d recommend or places I should visit? Any advice would be great!!!

Hi!

Return from La digue to Mahe, the day before our flight home.

Better

7.30am and enjoy the rest of the day in mahe

or

16.30 and enjoy the last morning in la digue + night in mahe?

What a beautiful country! I would love to visit at someday! 🩵💛❤️🤍💚

Hi all, I hope you’re doing well this Sunday! 1 week countdown until our honeymoon in the Seychelles and the excitement is building. I wanted to get opinions on whether a private helicopter transfer between the islands is worth it? I’m half thinking of surprising my husband but then I’m unsure about visibility / wind this time of year? Would love honest opinions and feedback as it is a big investment. Thank you so much. Also open to any other recommendations at all!

Hi,
I’m coming with my wife to Seychelles. I want to use rent a car, prefered small car like Hyundai i10. Is it okay for 2 persons according car power for normal drive accross the Praslin. Also same question for Mahe island.

Any recommendations in trying some traditional dishes?

Also, is it true that restaurants there are not worth the money as the food is nothing special?

Hi everyone!

I'm leaving Seychelles and still have some credit left on my SPTC bus card that I won't be able to use.

If you'd like it, just leave a comment with your card ID, and I'll gladly transfer the remaining credit to you.

I'd rather someone use it than let it go to waste. 😊

Long weekend ahead guys.. any plans??

Hello everyone

Im planning to visit Seychelles at the end of july.

Now im asking myself, if this connection is possible?:

I am just travelling with cabin luggage, no checked suitcase.

Is this connection possible or should i take the 16.00 ferry?

Many thanks!
