Also regular applications are recommended not only for sunbathing as a casual stroll in the Seychelles, without the proper protection for your skin would mean sun burn and all the unnecessary pain that comes with it. While at your chemist, checking out insect repellents is also a very good idea. Although people in the Seychelles joke about the mosquitoes whispering sweet nothings in your ear before actually biting you, mosquito bites can be quite painful an experience a good repellent can easily help you avoid.
Now after that very fruitful visit to the chemist’s, the next step is getting breathable clothes –preferably made out of cotton or linen- for the stay in the Seychelles.
As soon as you get off the airport at Pointe Larue, you are immediately struck at how laid back the Seychelles islands inhabitants are. This also spills over in the choice of clothes worn there. For your stay in the Seychelles islands you can temporarily forget you ever owned a suit, as it is very rare to need one in the Seychelles. For men, the most formal you can get in the Seychelles is a long sleeved shirt and a tie, to dine in a very posh restaurant. During the day a pair of shorts and a t-shirt is the usual uniform for anyone visiting the islands.
Women on the other hand have the chance to be a bit more creative in their choice of attire, although again, there is rarely a need for an evening gown. Looking at those living in Seychelles, you will see they tend to go for the smart casual look even when going out dining in an up-town restaurant. In fact, even hotel owners in Seychelles allow their clients to have lunch or dine in their swimwear up to certain times, depending on their own discretion.
In case you have an activity packed holiday planned, a pair of walking shoes, snorkels as well as assorted swimsuits are also advisable for the Seychelles islands. Remember, you can still get sunburnt even when snorkelling, be careful of long hours in the sea.
