173 Seychelles Inimitable beauty and striking serenity fuse together in a cluster of islands so pristine and perfect that they will take your breath away. Like pearls oating on crystal waters, these island jewels are undoubtedly the ultimate island retreat and are now home to some of the most exclusive hotels in the world. A honeymoon haven, World Heritage Site and location of spectacular pink and grey granite outcrops, more than 100 islands complement and contrast with each other. Some resemble tiny trickles of pure white sand while others are pierced by verdant mountain rainforests. The islands are scattered in random perfection throughout the warm tropical waters of the Indian Ocean, which in centuries past attracted pirates seeking priceless bounty. Todays treasure, however, lies in the powdery white sands, the spectacular coral reefs, the verdant hillsides festooned with coconut, cinnamon and banana plantations and high up in the mist forests, the exquisite wild orchids, epitomising the islands' fragile, rare beauty. With such a palette of beautiful islands to choose from why not experience more than one by island hopping' through the Seychelles. Close enough to complement your chosen islands, an African Safari could make an excellent second centre for your holiday. You may wish to combine a stay in the Seychelles with the island of Mauritius. Undoubtedly one of the most exclusive and pristine destinations on the planet.
