Le Ponant's Seychelle Itineraries
A veritable artist's palette of colour, from the deep turquoise of the transparent sea to the emerald green of the exuberant vegetation, separated by the glowing amber of fine sand beaches. The Seychelles archipelago is like a string placed on the deep blue velvet of Indian Ocean. The seychelles enjoy year round lush vegetation, beneficent home to a whole number of endemic species which we invite you to discover : the birds, giant tortoises, and coco de mer palms... For scuba enthusiasts this region is particularly appealing - rich ad untouched. Once more LE PONANT sets sail for a destination which combines natural beauty, authenticity and the picturesque...
