Praslin

Praslin is the honeymoon island for couples who want the Seychelles fantasy without total seclusion: Anse Lazio's granite boulders and gin-clear water open the show, and the prehistoric palms of the Vallée de Mai — home of the suggestive coco de mer — supply the only UNESCO site you can tour in flip-flops.
