Singapore Travelers - Look West to Visit "THE" Pearls in the Indian Ocean

Wanderlust travelers from Singapore and neighbouring countries may be accustomed to the sun, sand and sea. But if one sets one's sights farther into the Indian Ocean, a string of pearls awaits—opening one's eyes to new adventures.

SINGAPORE and MAHE, Seychelles, July 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Seychelles is all about brave endeavours and bold missions, offering something for everyone. While it's true that Seychelles remains one of the finest places on the planet to kick back, relax, and do absolutely nothing, it also caters to adrenaline junkies and those keen to add a little action to their itinerary.

Consider the Mare Aux Cochons Trail, a lush, off-the-beaten-path journey that rewards the curious and the bold. Along the trail, travelers might spot rare birds such as the Seychelles bulbul, fruit bats, and the elusive scops owl. This marshland trail is one of Mahé's few upland wetlands—serene, mysterious, and teeming with life.

Trails which opens the path of similar views and experiences include the Anse Major Trail and the walk that leads to the Sauzier Waterfall.

Then there's zip-lining: 80- and 120-metre lines that soar above and through the forest canopy, close enough to brush the treetops on a truly exhilarating ride. Or try seasonal rock climbing on an 18-metre granite face in a controlled, safe environment and perfect for a taste of mountaineering, minus the risk.

Closer to the western coast of Mahé lies an equestrian centre, home to a string of striking Appaloosa horses. Here, one will find nature rides along picturesque shorelines and curated moments from romantic picnics with champagne and canapés to photoshoots and even the unforgettable experience of swimming with a horse in the ocean.

Seychelles' biodiversity extends to its flora and fauna. Over millennia, the islands evolved like Noah's Arks, forming part of the Western Indian Ocean Biodiversity Hotspot and boasting two UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

With around 1,500 species of plants, which are some of the rarest in the world, Seychelles is a paradise for botanists and an ornithologist's dream, home to 13 bird species and 17 sub-species found nowhere else. The islands' natural blessings are matched by a deep commitment to sustainability, embodied in their pioneering eco-label that weaves green practices throughout the tourism sector.

The deeper a traveler explores the Seychelles, the clearer it becomes: No two islands are the same. Like family members, each possesses its own distinct character, with hidden gems and must-see wonders waiting to be discovered.

No matter your passion, there's an unforgettable adventure in Seychelles to match nearly every traveler's dream.
