Best Island Hopping Adventure in The World
Seychelles is literally a paradise with 115 islands (including the Private Resort Islands), it has a collective leisure-mass (land) of 455 square km to quench your wanderlust. The paradise sit between latitudes 4° and 10° south and longitudes 46° and 56° east in beautiful Indian ocean, neighboring to Madagascar and the great continent of Africa.
Geologically, it says that the islands of Seychelles have two distinct origins. First the inner islands are continental and granitic remnants, Then the outer islands are made from coral-line nature. And among these 115 pearly little islands, around 30 are inhabited, others are atolls, coral reefs, great clumps of rock, and sandy cays, which are mostly uninhabited except for seasonal bird colonies.
The Islands of Seychelles
Mahe is the largest island in Seychelles Islands. Mahe has over 152 square km of land. Since this is a geologically granitic island, it has over thousands of beautiful grey, granite boulders coming out here and there from lush green jungles.

It is the busy commercial and administrative capital of Republic of Seychelles, nestled below the mountains on the east coast.
