Going to the Seychelles in the School Holidays
School holidays are a wonderful time to travel. Getting away from home for just a little while will rejuvenate you and make you feel relaxed after spending countless hours in the classroom. Going to the Seychelles (Urlaub Seychellen) on a school holiday is also a wonderful idea. On the beautiful tropical islands of the Seychelles you have your choice of many beautiful sandy beaches or you can choose the secluded coves of the outer coral islands. Water sports such as skiing, snorkeling or deep sea diving are very enjoyable and exciting. You can find many places in the Seychelles to enjoy your favorite water sport. Deep sea fishing is also a popular sport on these beautiful islands so if you are looking to catch that big one then this is definitely the place to be on your relaxing holiday.
The cuisine on the Seychelles (but also Mauritius) is an eclectic blend of flavors inspired by African and Indian culture with a little French, British and Chinese flavor thrown in for a wonderful and delicious eating experience that you simply can not find anywhere else on earth. From the vast selection of curry with coconut to stir fry and fresh fish and rice, you will simply marvel in the wonderful flavors of the local cuisine. With the selection of restaurants and beach bars found on the Seychelles your biggest concern may be in choosing where to go to spend your relaxing evenings.
Shopping is also grand. From beautiful handmade mother of pearl and shell jewelry to exquisitely crafted baskets, you can find just the perfect souvenir to take home and remind you of your glorious holiday.
If your school holiday happens to fall during the end of October, you should be sure to check out the Seychelles Creole Festival. Another wonderful tourist attraction is the beautiful and colorful Victoria Market on Mahe where you can find many local teas and spices. Whether you have a long school holiday or only a few days in which to relax, the Seychelles is the perfect place to spend your time. Accommodations range from budget friendly to lush five star resorts with spas and golf packages for you to enjoy. Just be sure to leave time for giant turtle watching and swimming with the dolphins. From the beautiful beaches to the lush jungle interiors, spending just a few days here will leave you completely relaxed and ready to get back to your studies.
