Marcello's Top 3 Seychellen Highlights
Anse Lazio – a picture-perfect beach
An absolute must-see on Praslin…
…because after a short bus ride and a short walk, you're rewarded with a breathtaking view over the entire bay.
…the soft sand, turquoise water and surrounding granite rocks are simply stunning!
Sir Selwyn Clarke Market in Victoria
A true feast for the senses…
…because the vendors welcome you with warmth and offer fresh produce, fish and spices full of flavour.
…especially on Saturdays, it’s the perfect place to immerse yourself in the local Seychellois lifestyle.
Exploring La Digue by bike
Ideal for discovering the island at your own pace…
…because nearly all of the dream beaches are easy to reach by bike – no traffic, no stress.
…I’ve seen the most spectacular sunsets of my life there, in an incredibly relaxed atmosphere.
Marcello's favourite experience in the Seychelles
For me, there isn’t just one single most beautiful experience – it’s the many small, special moments that make my stay in the Seychelles so unique. I enjoy not only the breathtaking sunsets, but also the sunrises. It’s worth getting up a little earlier – for example, at 7 a.m. – to experience the silence, the soft light, and the peaceful atmosphere. When the island slowly awakens, it’s a magical moment that I truly treasure. Another highlight for me is dining in the small guesthouses, most of which are run by locals. You can immediately taste the love and care that goes into the cooking – it makes every meal special. A very special moment for me was my first stay on Silhouette Island. It was there that I spent my very first night in the Seychelles. That feeling of arriving – the nature, the light, the sense of “Now I’m really here” – is something I will never forget.
Marcello's Insider Tip
Island Hopping by Catamaran! For me, a 4- to 5-day catamaran tour is the perfect way to discover the Seychelles off the beaten track. You’ll reach secluded bays like Anse Marron on La Digue, which are difficult to access from land, and enjoy fantastic snorkelling spots without the crowds. Along the way, it’s worth stopping onshore to try one of the many takeaways – the food is fresh, delicious, and surprisingly affordable. Ideal for anyone who wants to experience nature, the ocean, and Creole cuisine in their purest form.
A trip to the Seychelles is something truly special – dreamlike beaches, fascinating nature, a vibrant culture, watersports, and hiking trails await you. All of this in one of the safest travel destinations in the world. I look forward to supporting you with tips and ideas for your trip planning!
