February Seychelles
Good day, dear yapovtsy!
I want to share with you impressions about the trip to the Seychelles.
There will be many photons and letters about the end tell.
Our route was through the United Arab Emirates and has been specially selected 20-hour dock. This time we have enough for a visit the major attractions of Dubai, but for him the second time.
Seychelles route has been planned so that immediately after the arrival of the main island of Mahe, we sailed to the island of Praslin, the second largest.
Cat Cocos - speed catamaran, plying between the major islands.
A powerful piece of plate.
On Praslin settled in the guest-house, zabukanny correspondence.
The island is small, but the mountainous, to get around on foot or by bike to go round quite problematic.
So the next day we have to hire a baby here
We visit all the beaches in the northern part of the island.
...
...
Further our path lay to the National Park Praslin - Mayo Valley.
Located in the central part of the island is about 20 hectares and is notable for the fact that here you can see the palm forest as it was before the arrival of man on the island.
Seychelles Pride - the biggest nut in the world - the coco de mer. Reminiscent of naked female hip with all the "anatomical" details.
...
Local livestock
...
...
Going further into the southern part of the island.
I must say that there are more than the usual eye northern landscape - pine, granite boulders
and even the abandoned houses
...
...
The next day was coming transfer to La Digue - the smallest and most picturesque of the three main islands of the archipelago.
Guest rented as well, by correspondence and all 6 days lived without neighbors, so that the hacienda and garden were completely at our disposal.
...
...
...
Few cars on the island, all move on bicycles.
Another card of Seychelles - giant land tortoises.
...
Readily eaten with the hands, pulled his head and raised on the feet when they surface.
Echoes of Somalia.
LAS Anse d'Argent - a huge beach of many small bays, separated by stone.
Scenic cliffs and bizarre boulders.
Due to the abundance of corals and shallow beach is more suitable for snorkeling than for normal swimming.
At sunset, the paint change, indescribably beautiful beach.
...
...
Beaches Grand Anse, Petite Anse and Anse Cocos alike. The white sand without rocks and coral fragments, high waves.
They are separated by mountain passes that are easy to overcome.
...
On the way to the beach in the mountains, you can stop and have a snack at the enterprising natives.
...
However, our cook in no hurry, and yet another salad planed, we have time for a drink coconut rum.
Local nowhere at all in a hurry, on small islands atmosphere of complete relaxation and peace. And I think I know why
The next destination - the island of Mahe.
The capital of the Republic of Seychelles - the city of Victoria, and is the center of the city, Clock Tower.
Happy life in the city is boiling. On the main street are many souvenir shops, a grocery market. Something like Hay was not in the best years.
...
...
...
Leaving away from the bustle of the mountains.
...
...
It is necessary to say a few words about local roads. Such steep serpentines, we have never seen anywhere else. The almost complete absence of curbs and strikers makes them very dangerous attraction.
...
Maybe that's why so many of the island churches, and in the mountains of prayed.
...
...
By seven dark, life in the islands freezes, we return to the city.
