Best Activities and Tours on Praslin

Praslin is the second island most people reach, and it earns the trip. It holds the Vallée de Mai, one of only two places on earth where the coco de mer grows wild, and it is the springboard to Curieuse, La Digue and some of the finest beaches in the Indian Ocean. These are the Praslin tours travellers rate most, all bookable online.

Our Advice Before You Book

What our team on Mahé tells visitors who ask.

1

See the Ancient Forest

The Vallée de Mai is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the last stronghold of the Seychelles black parrot. An hour under its canopy with a guide shows you what an untrained eye walks straight past, and it pairs naturally with a beach afternoon.

2

Hop to Curieuse and St Pierre

A boat day from Praslin to Curieuse puts you among Aldabra giant tortoises that roam free, then drops you at the St Pierre islet for some of the clearest snorkelling around. These island-hopping days consistently pull the strongest reviews.

3

Make La Digue Easy

La Digue is a short ferry away, and a guided day handles the timing so your hours go on Anse Source d’Argent rather than on connections.

Local Tip

Hopping between Praslin, La Digue and Mahé runs on the Cat Cocos and inter-island ferries. Lock your boat days down early and the rest of the trip falls into place.
