When you think of the Seychelles, you might picture white sandy beaches, impressive rock formations, palms swaying in the wind, and giant tortoises. And while all these images are certainly true, they don’t fully capture the essence of this Indian Ocean archipelago. The culture of the Seychelles is at least as captivating as its breathtaking natural beauty. STORY Seychelles has now set its sights on becoming a bridge to this cultural richness as well.
