area of 455 km² and an Exclusive Economic Zone of 1.4
million km² in the western Indian Ocean. It represents
an archipelago of legendary beauty that extends from
between 4 and 10 degrees south of the equator and which
lies between 480km and 1,600km from the east coast of
Africa.Of these 115 islands, 41 constitute the oldest
mid-oceanic granite islands on earth while a further 74
form the low-lying coral atolls and reef islands of the
Outer Islands.
The granitic islands of the Seychelles archipelago
cluster around the main island of Mahé, home to the
international airport and the capital, Victoria, and its
satellites Praslin and La Digue. Together, these Inner
Islands form the cultural and economic hub of the nation
and contain the majority of Seychelles’ tourism
facilities as well as its most stunning beaches.
