Praslin Island was named after the Duc of Praslin who was guillotined during the French Revolution. It belongs to a group of islands called the Aldabra, which includes Curieuse, Cousin, and Aride. At eight miles long and three miles wide, Praslin is the second largest island in the Seychelles. It’s a granite island awash with lush forest preserves and some great beaches and yet another Seychelles embodiment of a tropical island paradise.
The Indian Ocean Islands are out of this world. An indisputable paradise on earth with luxurious resorts beside thousands of sun-kissed beaches leading to deliciously inviting turquoise seas. Africans, Indians, Europeans, and pirates have all settled here, even the now extinct dodo made its home on this timeless, tropical paradise.
Moyenne (Middle) island is a tiny deserted island, just half a mile wide, twenty minutes boat ride east from Victoria in Mahé, Seychelles. But your boat has to moor some way off the island as the water’s so shallow, so bring your waders.
The people in the Indian Ocean are from African, Indian, and Chinese extraction. Their ancestors were slaves brought over to work the sugar cane, vanilla, and tea plantations. Through intermarriage and interracial relationships, Africans fused with French, Indian, and Chinese to create a set of people commonly known as Creoles.
