With a backdrop of towering 1000m granite peaks, Mahé is an extraordinary treasure trove of flora that has evolved over centuries of splendid isolation. Rare endemic plants found nowhere else in the world adorn Mahé’s mist forests in mountain strongholds, such as the Jellyfish Tree, the carnivorous Seychelles Pitcher Plant and the Seychelles Vanilla Orchid. Mahé is the transportation hub for island-hops and day excursions to neighbouring islands and all other islands within Seychelles.

All scheduled domestic flights by Air Seychelles originate from Mahé to the serviced islands.

A leisurely Private tour of the island by car will take about 4 hours and reveal the lion’s share of Seychelles’ places of natural flora, fauna, cultural interest and other attractions.
