Trip planning
Two islands for a week, three for two
7 nights
Praslin + La Digue
A week is enough for two islands, not three. The strongest combination for seven nights is Praslin and La Digue — fifteen ferry minutes apart, with the transfer from Mahé falling on arrival day rather than into the middle of the trip.
14 nights
Praslin + La Digue + Mahé
Two weeks is the length at which three islands work and Mahé finally becomes more than the island you land on. The order that costs the least time: Mahé last, because the return flight leaves from there.
Found only in Seychelles

Behind Seylocal
Miguel Gomes
Five years in Seychelles. The reason this site gives recommendations instead of search results.
I lived in Seychelles for five years — long enough to know which beach is unusable in July, which property photographs better than it lives, and where people actually eat in the evening. Seylocal came out of watching the same thing happen over and over: people book three islands in seven nights, spend half the holiday moving luggage, and come home tired. One conversation prevents that. That conversation is what I am offering. I work on this together with Andy, who lives locally in Seychelles.

FAQ
Common questions
Is an enquiry already a booking?
No. After your enquiry we check price and availability directly with the property and send you a written offer. It becomes binding only when you accept that offer and, where agreed, pay.
Why is there no price on many properties?
Because a published price would be wrong for most travellers. Rates in Seychelles depend on season, occupancy, room category and party size. We give you the real price for your dates instead of showing a number that is right for nobody.
Why are photos missing on some properties?
Because we do not use other people's images without permission, and we will not pass a generic beach photo off as a picture of a specific property. As soon as an operator clears its own material, it appears here — with attribution.
How many islands should we combine?
Two for seven nights, three for ten to fourteen. Every island change costs you half a day, and transfer days fall right in the middle of the trip. Squeeze three islands into a week and you spend the holiday moving luggage.
Before you book
Three islands in seven nights?
It is the most common mistake in Seychelles. Every island change costs half a day, and the transfer days land in the middle of the trip. One conversation beforehand prevents it.
