Top ten lists that order honeymoon destinations frequently place the Republic of Seychelles in the uppermost positions alongside such romantic staples as Paris, France and the islands of the Caribbean. It is not hard to understand why. A majority of the nation’s 155 islands are completely unpopulated and unspoiled, so if it is peace and privacy you are after, Seychelles has it in the form of long golden beaches and crystal clear waters
As you arrive it is likely your honeymoon will begin on the main island of Mahé, and from here can catch ferries and flights elsewhere on a daily basis. Mahé is the largest of the islands and home to around 80,000 people with around a quarter of those living in the nation’s capital Victoria. Much of the rest of the island is given over to mountainous outcrops that reach 1,000 metres and luscious forest that contain many unique species such as the Pitcher Plant and Jellyfish Tree.
