What should I pack for my trip to the Seychelles?

Pack your suitcase for an unforgettable stay in the Seychelles!

You're about to embark on a heavenly experience in the Seychelles, an archipelago of breathtaking beauty, where white sandy beaches melt into crystal-clear turquoise waters.

But before you set off on this dream trip, it's essential to pack your suitcase well to make the most of your stay. Here's a complete list of the essentials to pack for an unforgettable holiday in the Seychelles:

 

  1. Ocean-friendly sun cream: Protect your skin and the marine ecosystem by opting for an ocean-friendly sun cream with a high SPF50 protection factor.
  1. Swimming costumes and a towel: Take several swimming costumes with you to make the most of the paradise beaches and water sports on offer in the Seychelles.
  1. Light and long clothing: Pack light cotton or linen clothing to adapt to the tropical climate of the Seychelles. Also take long clothes to protect yourself from mosquitoes in the evening.
  1. Mosquito repellent cream and citronella repellent: If your accommodation doesn't have mosquito nets, bring a diffuser to spray with citronella, a scent that mosquitoes hate. Don't forget a cream for insect bites.
  1. After-sun cream: Keep your skin moisturised and soothed after a day in the sun by taking Biafine or a sunburn cream with you.
  1. Hat and Umbrella: Protect yourself from the sun with a wide-brimmed hat and take an umbrella in case of sudden rain.
  1. Small Medical Kit: Take a small medical kit with medicines for everyday ailments.
  1. Sportswear: If you are planning to go hiking, pack comfortable sportswear and walking shoes.
  1. Snorkelling Equipment: Explore the underwater wonders of the Seychelles by bringing your own snorkelling equipment.
  1. Mains Adaptor and Cash: Make sure you have a UK 3-pin mains adaptor to charge your electronic devices, and always bring cash as Seychelles still uses a lot of paper money.
  1. Torch or Headlamp: If you're planning to cycle around La Digue, a flashlight or headlamp can be useful to light your way at night.

 

With this list of essentials, you're all set for a dream Seychelles holiday. Make the most of every moment and let yourself be enchanted by the natural beauty of this enchanting archipelago!
