The island nation is considered one of the most romantic destinations in the world, having attracted the popular American couple, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and singer Ciara, on a romantic getaway where Wilson proposed to Ciara.

The island’s capital city is Victoria, which is located on the largest island of the archipelago, Mahé. Victoria is home to over 80% of the population (total population of the Seychelles is just over 90,000 people). The second largest island is Praslin, and is home to over 7,000. La Digue is the third largest island, home to over 2,000 people.

The main languages spoken include English, French, and Creole.
The island nation enjoys warm weather all year round, with temperatures averaging between 27 and 29 degrees Celsius. The best time to visit depends on your desired activities.
