Travel Responsibly in Seychelles
Sustainable Travel is something that is becoming increasingly spoken about, and rightly so. If you’re looking for inspiration on places to travel, those of paradise locations, unique escapes, experiences and accommodations that pride themselves on sustainability, then head to the Seychelles.
From locally sourced to home grown goods, harvested on the farms or gardens of these resorts, to conservation projects, solar energy and reductions in water waste and plastic consumption – the places that I’ll be highlighting within this article are all that and more. All locations have strong sustainable and eco-friendly initiatives and are dedicated to the conservation of their atolls, species and the development of their communities.
Whilst conservation projects are happening all over the Seychelles Islands, it becomes a small part of the responsibility of the tourist, upon visiting, that they effectively help rather than hinder these astonishing developments. Becoming involved in these various activities and being made aware of why ‘we’ as tourists can help enrich raw beauty, tropical marine life, rare wildlife and fundamentally reduce our carbon footprint, enables us to make wiser, educated decisions regarding travel.
