Endless, sandy beaches are great for relaxation, but there are still plenty of activities to get involved in
The Seychelles is one of the world’s most beautiful island destinations, and it’s also one of the easiest for families to visit. Malaria-free and with no compulsory vaccinations required, it’s a tropical escape that combines adventure, nature, and relaxation with peace of mind.
From the lush forests of Praslin, home to rare wildlife, to the turquoise waters surrounding Mahé, families can enjoy everything from water sports and jungle zip-lining to days spent exploring quiet beaches. Many family-friendly resorts feature excellent Kids Clubs, giving parents time to unwind in the spa or by the pool.
Wildlife lovers will enjoy a visit to Bird Island, where giant tortoises roam freely and turtles nest between September and December. The islands also offer incredible underwater experiences: younger children can learn to snorkel, while older ones can even earn a Junior PADI certificate. For something gentler, a glass-bottom boat trip reveals the reefs without leaving your seat.
While the Seychelles is often seen as a honeymoon paradise, it’s just as rewarding for families seeking adventure, discovery, and connection. Speak to one of our experts to start planning your perfect Seychelles family holiday.

“The Seychelles are wonderfully open to families. The pace is relaxed, the beaches are safe and shallow, and many resorts go out of their way to make younger guests feel at home. It’s the kind of place where parents can truly unwind, while children are just as enchanted by the islands as the adults.”
