Why take the family to Seychelles?
Some of the most photographed beaches on earth, with quiet islands to hop between.
Family-friendly ideas
- A family-friendly hotel on a calm beach with kids' activities
- Giant tortoises at Curieuse and shallow snorkelling
- Glass-bottom boat trips at Sainte Anne Marine Park
- Island-hopping day by ferry to Praslin or La Digue
Where to stay with children
- Mahé. The main island, with the airport, Victoria and a mix of beaches and hotels. Best for a first visit.
- Praslin. Calmer than Mahé, with Anse Lazio and the Vallée de Mai. Best for beaches and nature.
- La Digue. Bicycles instead of cars, and the famous Anse Source d'Argent. Best for a relaxed, picture-perfect stay.
- Private-island resorts. Exclusive resorts on small islands for honeymoons and luxury stays.
When to go with kids
April to May and October to November are usually the best months: calm seas, light winds and good visibility for snorkelling. The south-east trade winds from May to September bring cooler, breezier weather and drier days.
Tips for families
- Choose a hotel with family rooms and a kids' club if you want some downtime
- Plan one main activity a day, with rest time built in
- Ask us about child prices and flight baggage for your children's ages
- Children need their own passports, and we confirm entry rules for the whole family
