The small capital, its market and harbour, and the marina residences of Eden Island.

Victoria is one of the world’s smallest capitals: compact enough to walk in a morning, with a covered market, the clock tower and the inter-island ferry quay. Eden Island is a reclaimed marina development just offshore, linked to Mahé by causeway, with apartments and villas used by many self-catering visitors.
Staying here makes most sense for short stays, early ferries or travellers who want restaurants and services close by rather than a beach on the doorstep.
