Explore Seychelles
Seychelles is a premier Indian Ocean superyacht destination with granite islands, coral reefs, beaches, private resorts and strong island-hopping appeal.
Seychelles is included as a preliminary Superyacht Guide destination because it has strategic, charter, cultural, expedition, resort, passage-making or regional cruising relevance. Some of these destinations are established luxury cruising areas, while others are best treated as specialist route or shore-extension destinations requiring careful local support.
For owners and guests, Seychelles can form part of a wider itinerary involving beaches, reefs, wildlife, culture, historic cities, marinas, remote anchorages, diving, safari extensions, ocean passages or Red Sea and Indian Ocean cruising. Its current Destination Star rating is deliberately capped pending full editorial assessment.

Seychelles International Airport (SEZ)
Seychelles International Airport on Mahé is the main gateway for yacht guests and crew.
Mahé provides the main yacht and marina access, with wider cruising based on anchorages and island stops.
Advance marina, anchorage, national park and outer-island planning is recommended.
Shoulder-season months often give calmer conditions for diving, beaches and island cruising.
