Popular amongst couples the world over, Seychelles may have earned a reputation for romance but don’t forget it’s perfect for family vacays too and here are some reasons why!
Family-Friendly Accommodation
From spacious villas with a pool right beside the beach to fun activities, there’s much to enjoy at family-friendly all-inclusive resorts; Seychelles holidays at such properties can include packages that not only cover all meals and drinks but offer other benefits too like complimentary water sports, unlimited Wi-Fi and a dedicated villa host available 24/7.
Safe & Pristine Beaches
Families can look forward to plenty of relaxation and playtime at beaches that are pristine and safe; the waters are generally shallow, ideal for kids while offshore reefs offer protection to idyllic bays from the ocean. Amongst the secluded shorelines here is the beach known as Anse Louis where you will find Anantara Maia Seychelles Villas on Mahe Island.
Water Sports Fun
Apart from unwinding at the beach, you and your loved ones can enjoy some coastal escapades too. This includes trying water sports such as snorkelling to spot various marine and coral species. Also popular are kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, while older kids and their parents can head off scuba diving for more in-depth underwater exploration.
Adventures in Nature
Amongst the best things to do for families in Seychelles is to experience untouched natural beauty at attractions like the Vallee de Mai Nature Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site on Praslin Island. Some resorts will also offer helicopter rides to the Aride Bird Reserve, while the National Botanical Gardens gives kids a chance to see giant Aldabra tortoises too.
