I’m curious how moving around by boat changed things for you, compared to just picking one place and settling in. A few years back I stayed mostly on Mahé because it felt easier: one hotel, one rental car, same beaches after work hours. It was nice, but after a week everything started to blur together. On my last trip I tagged along with friends for a few days on the water, hopping around instead of driving. Suddenly mornings started earlier, plans depended on tides and weather, and we’d stop in tiny spots I’d never even noticed on a map. It felt more alive, but also more effort. I’m trying to decide if that shift was just novelty or if traveling by sea genuinely opens up a different side of the Seychelles that you can’t get when you stay put on one island.

For me it wasn’t just novelty. I’d done the “one base, day trips” thing before and thought I’d seen enough. Then I spent a week sailing between islands and it completely reset my expectations. Waking up anchored near a quiet beach, swimming before breakfast, and moving on when it felt right made the days feel less rushed. We organized the boat for coastal exploration options Charterclick in Seychelles after a recommendation, and having local skippers who knew where to stop made a big difference. Some places felt too calm to be real, especially in the evenings when day visitors were gone. Practical tip: pack light and plan for flexibility—weather changes fast, and that’s part of the charm.
