Seychelles - Granite Islands & Pure Isolation

Overview

The Seychelles trades the Maldives' coral-atoll flatness for something stranger and more dramatic - granite boulders the size of buildings rising straight out of white sand, giant tortoises wandering UNESCO-protected forest, and beaches regularly named among the world's best for a reason that's obvious the moment you see them. This trip splits time between Mahe and Praslin, the two main islands, for variety without overcomplicating the logistics.

Quieter and more remote than most Indian Ocean honeymoon destinations, with noticeably fewer crowds.
