A private paradise, Praslin is the second largest island in the 115 island archipelago of Seychelles, in the middle of the Indian Ocean off the east coast of Africa. It is the ultimate in tranquillity and unspoiled, natural beauty, containing one of the two UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the Seychelles - The Vallée de Mai, a primeval forest once considered the original Garden of Eden
Whether you come to dive among the more than 800 species of fish in the island waters, including the docile but largest fish in the world, the Whale Shark, marvel at flocks of colourful birds flitting among rare jungle trees or soak up the equatorial sun on silver sands, Praslin will impress as being just about as close to paradise as it is possible to get on earth.
