Wechills @ Seychelles

Tripoto
25th Dec 2015

Seychelles is an archipelago of 115 islands. The most known islands being Mahe , Praslin and LA Digue. Mahe also houses the capital city of Seychelles, Victoria, which gas some places for shopping and dining. 


Started my trip with 3 days in Mahe and later moved on to Praslin for another 3 days. 

 MAHE ISLAND (Beau Vallon Area)

Hotel 
Treasure Cove
The best food that I've tasted, maybe on the pricier side of things but definitely the best. 
View of the ocean from the suite 'North' is just unbelievable. 

If you're living near the 'Beau Vallon' beach like I was much of the travel is going to revolve around here. 

Nightclub
Tequila Boom
(Opens late in the night, right time to enter is post midnight). Entered around 10 and to my disappointment so did the DJ and the bartenders, later helped them stock the fridge as well. 

Beach
Beau Vallon
Largest beach to walk on. Feels like a dream white beach and blue waters. Waves over 10 feet high, and surfing is a good idea in case you have a surfboard.

Dining
Eating at your hotel or other fancy hotels is a good option in case you have money to spare. The capital city Victoria also houses some food trucks which might be a cheaper option. 

Scuba Diving
Dive Seychelles/Underwater Diving (At Berjaya Hotel)
Introductory course
"There are two kinds of divers, diver who pee in their wetsuits and divers who don't tell the truth" 
(Our first introductory dive)
It was one of a kind experience. Saw all kinds of marine life including octopuses, sholes of fishes, lobsters at an arm's length. 
It was scary and took me a while to adjust to the breathing but the end result was something marvellous. 
Out instructor and guide 'Michael' was the most hilarious part of the trip, with his one liners and hand-held guiding managed to see one of the most beautiful sights a men can get. Truly remarkable and a must do experience.
