The second largest of the Seychelles Islands, Praslin offers the visitor arguably the best beach in Seychelles "Anse Lazio" located on the northern coast of the island.

Further south, hidden away in the mountain forest discover the famous Vallee de Mai with its unique and sensuous Coco de Mer palms, declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 1984.

Here on Praslin the pace of life slows down dramatically to the point where the giant tortoises appear to be in a hurry. Choose your hotel from small, delightful family-run guest houses to the sophistication of Lemuria Resort Seychelles and if it is beaches you are after, Praslin must be near the top of your list.
