Trade-offs and what to know
Praslin’s best-known beaches are spread around the island, so expect to use buses, taxis or a hire car. 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
Praslin is reached from Mahé by domestic flight to Praslin Island Airport or by ferry to Baie Ste Anne. On the island, buses, taxis and hire cars are the options.
