Luxury Scuba Diving Holidays Seychelles

Mahe is the main island, home to the capital, airport and most of the population. Measuring just 28km long by 8km wide, Mahé is the largest island in the Seychelles, and a leisurely tour of the island by car will take 2 to 2 1/2 hours. One of the Seychelles' Inner Islands Mahe contains the nation’s capital, Victoria, and is the international gateway to Seychelles. With a backdrop of towering 1000m granite peaks, Mahe is an extraordinary treasure trove of flora that has evolved over centuries of splendid isolation. Rare endemic plants found nowhere else in the world adorn Mahe’s mist forests in mountain strongholds, such as the Jellyfish Tree, the carnivorous Seychelles Pitcher Plant and the Seychelles Vanilla Orchid.
