Lightweight Clothing: Opt for breathable fabrics like cotton or linen. Pack t-shirts, shorts, sundresses, and swimsuits to stay cool in the tropical climate.

Sun Protection: Bring a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and plenty of high SPF sunscreen to shield yourself from the intense equatorial sun. A UV-protective shirt or t-shirt is also ideal for swimming or boat trips.

Footwear: Comfortable sandals are perfect for the beach, while flip-flops work well for casual outings. If you’re planning to explore trails or nature reserves, a pair of hiking shoes will be invaluable.

Swimwear and Cover-ups: With the Seychelles’ stunning beaches, you'll want several swimsuits and cover-ups or sarongs.

Snorkeling Gear: Having your own mask and snorkel can be convenient and more hygienic, though rentals are available. Reef shoes can also be useful at some beaches.

Insect Repellent: Mosquitoes can be pesky, especially in the evenings, so a reliable insect repellent is essential.

Reusable Water Bottle: Staying hydrated is crucial in the heat, and a reusable water bottle is an eco-friendly choice.

Camera, Smartphone, or Drone: Capture the breathtaking landscapes, vibrant marine life, and unique flora and fauna.

Travel Adapter: The Seychelles uses Type G electrical outlets, so pack the right travel adapter if needed. (At Lodoicea Apartments, we provide an adapter in the apartment.)

First Aid Kit: A basic first aid kit with band-aids, antiseptic wipes, motion sickness medicine, and any personal medications can be useful.

Waterproof Bag: A waterproof bag for carrying essentials to and from the shore is also useful for boat trips.

Documents: Bring your passport, driver’s license, travel insurance, accommodation vouchers, sailing/skipper license, and diving certificate if needed.

Money: The local currency, Seychelles Rupees (SCR), is only available in Seychelles, either from an ATM or an exchange office. So bring along your credit card or some cash (EUR, USD).
