These golden isles in the Indian Ocean, 1,000 miles from any other landmass, offer some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The cliffs sprout from warm seas that are perfect for water sports and snorkeling. A Mahe Island tour delivers a remarkable view of Victoria from the mountains and provides an up-close encounter with the giant Aldabran tortoises at the Botanical Gardens. Praslin Island is home to black parrots and other rare species of sea birds and plant life.
