THINGS TO DO ON PRASLIN

Main Attractions

Visit Vallee de Mai

Vallee de Mai Nature Reserve is a nature park and UNESCO World Heritage site on the island of Praslin, Seychelles. It consists of a well-preserved palm forest, flagship species made up of the island's endemic coco-de-mer as well as five other endemic palms. The Coco-de-mer, a monocot tree in the Arecaceae (palm Family), has the largest seeds (double nut seed) of any plant in the world. Also unique to the park is its wildlife, including birds such as the rare Seychelles black parrot, mammals, crustaceans, snails and reptiles.
