The Seychelles largest and main island, Mahe is home to the capital of Victoria and almost 90% of the nation’s total population stay here. Still, the island retains its idyllic beauty, with 3,000-foot mountains and scores of gorgeous beaches. Many plants, including the so-called Jellyfish Tree and several rare orchids, are unique to Mahe’s shores. The Seychelles Natural History Museum, the Botanical Gardens and the Codevar Craft Centre, all in Victoria, are must visit list.
One of the best spots to offer a panoramic view of the Eden Islands and Mahe is La Misere Viewpoint. It is just a 10-minutes drive from Victoria City and can be visited both during the daytime and the nighttime. You will also be able to see the Sainte Anne Marine National Park and Ile Au Cerf in the distance from this viewpoint.
During the day, you can enjoy looking around the island while at the night, you can admire the entire island lit up with lights and the sky filled with millions of stars.
