What does it take to make the cut as the site of the Royal honeymoon? Well, it certainly doesn’t hurt to be an archipelago of 115 exotically-pristine and largely uninhabited islands stretching across the Indian Ocean. Though not everyone can visit the exclusive North Island currently hosting William and Kate, there are more than a dozen other islands in the Seychelles with tourist facilities and more than enough undiscovered beauty to go around. The main granite island of Mahé is the largest of the islands and home to the majority of the population of just 85,000. The Seychelles are also home to some of the rarest flora and fauna in the world including the largest known population of giant Aldabra tortoises (though don’t expect to see one lumbering down the beach toward you). The remote tropical beauty of the Seychelles Islands makes them the perfect choice for honeymooners or anyone seeking privacy and tranquility on holiday.
