Description
Begin your tour with a pick-up from your accommodation. Visit Fond Ferdinand Nature Reserve to see untouched fauna and flora, including endemic palm trees, medicinal plants, and tropical fruit trees. Observe the world’s largest seed, the coco de Mer, in its natural setting. The reserve is home to three giant land tortoises which you can interact with closely. The clear river supports freshwater species such as the Indian shortfin eel, freshwater crayfish, and Seychelles killifish.
Hikers can choose a trail to a viewpoint overlooking Praslin and surrounding satellite islands. Alternatively, enjoy a leisurely walk through the flat parts of the reserve for a relaxed morning connecting with nature.
The tour continues with a stop at a local venue for lunch, at your own cost. You can visit fruit vendors, the fish market, or browse locally made souvenirs.
Next, visit Anse Georgette beach to experience white sands and clear waters. For those wanting more adventure, there is an option to hike to Anse Lazio beach to enjoy sunset views.
Optional additional activities include a car ride to one of Praslin’s highest points for photo opportunities and a snorkeling experience from shore among granitic rocks to see live corals, shoals of fish, and occasionally turtles or eagle rays.
