Top Nature in Republic of Seychelles

I suggest bringing snacks and water with you. There aren't many places to grab a bite within the reserve, so having some food will save you time and keep your energy up while hiking. Trust me, you don't want to get hungry out there!

I recommend eating at a local café instead of the beachside restaurants; you'll find way better prices and authentic creole food that way!

i suggest checking out the local market on wednesdays to grab fresh fruit and snacks—it’s super cheap and delicious!

If you're into water sports, try booking your activities early in the morning, around 8 AM, to avoid the crowds and get better rates.

If you want to catch the best sun, I suggest hitting the beach before 10 AM. The early morning light is stunning and way fewer people around, trust me, it makes a huge difference!

Watch out for your stuff on busy days; I left my towel unattended for just a minute and someone took it! My advice is to keep an eye on your belongings or use a beach bag that's a bit more secure.

Snorkeling is a must, but I recommend bringing your own gear if you can. Rental prices can be a bit steep, and the quality isn't always the best. Save some cash and enjoy better equipment!

Definitely explore the nearby rock formations. Getting off the beaten path led me to some stunning views and fewer people. It's totally worth it!

Bring your own snacks and drinks! The nearby kiosks can be pricey, and there are great spots to relax and enjoy a picnic right on the beach.

If you can, try to visit around 8 AM. The beach is much quieter, and you’ll get the best light for photos before the crowds start rolling in

Wear water shoes if you can! The rocky areas can be a bit tricky to walk on, but with the right footwear, it’ll make your experience a breeze.

My advice is to check the tides before heading out. When we went, high tide made it hard to access some areas, which was a bit of a bummer. Plan ahead for the best experience!

One thing I wish I’d known is to wear water shoes. The rocks can be slippery and uncomfortable, so having those makes it so much easier to walk around.

I suggest bringing some snacks and water, because the trails can be pretty long and there's not much around. I ran out of energy halfway through!

Check the tide times before you set off. I went at high tide and couldn't access the beach easily. It was a bummer, but low tide looks way better for swimming!

Explore the nearby trail to get a great view from above! It’s a bit of a hike, but the scenery is so worth it and it’s a nice break from the beach crowd.

I recommend bringing your snorkeling gear if you have it. The view underwater is stunning and you’ll get to see sea life without paying for a tour!
