Trade-offs and what to know
Beau Vallon can be busy by day, and sea conditions on the north-west coast change with the monsoon seasons. Self-catering means shopping for groceries, which in Seychelles can be limited outside the larger villages. Conditions on the beaches change between the two monsoon seasons, which is worth checking for your travel dates.
Getting there and getting around
International flights arrive at Seychelles International Airport on the east coast of Mahé. Mahé has a bus network, but a hire car or taxis are the easier way to reach beaches and viewpoints.
