The Republic of Seychelles(塞舌尔) is a group of 115 islands of truly striking beauty, lying in the Indian Ocean 1,800 km east of Kenya.Popular with tourists, Seychelles is also a natural sanctuary for an amazing diversity of bird and animal life, such as the world’s smallest frog, the heaviest land tortoise and the only flightless bird of the Indian Ocean.
Culture and cuisine
The Seychellois, numbering around 90,000 people, are a colourful and harmonious blend of different races.People from almost every race on earth have at one time or another contributed something of their own customs and cultures to the islands.This diversity is clearly reflected in Seychellois cooking.From Asian influences come delicious stir fries and fiery curries, while the European influence, especially French, is apparent in the use of herbs and garlic.Some of the best fish in the world can be found here—the popular red snapper or "bourzwa" is favourite with both locals and tourists.
Environment
Unique plants and animals have evolved in Seychelles to produce some of the rarest examples of flora and fauna in the world.Seychelles also boasts two World Heritage sites:Aldabra Atoll and the Vallee de Mai,where the magnificent coco de mer palm rows.The government has declared 46% of the total land mass (452 sq kin) as national parks, nature reserves or protected areas.A further 228 sq km have been designated as Marine National Park to safeguard marine creatures and habitat.As land is scarce, waste disposal can be a problem.Where possible, therefore, rubbish such as toothpaste cartons and empty shampoo bottles should be taken back to the visitor’s country of origin.
Weather
Seychelles enjoys a pleasant tropical climate with an average humidity of 75%.The islands lie outside the cyclone belt and there are no extremes of weather.When the south-east trade winds blow between May and September, there is generally less rainfall, but rougher seas.The north-west trade winds,which blow from November to March, bring the wet season.From March to May and September to November, the seas are calmest, with the best visibility and conditions.
