Culture & Traditions
Discover the vibrant cultural blend of Seychelles' diverse traditions.
Seychelles is a cultural mixtape blending European, British, African, Indian, and Moorish traditions in its local customs. The Creoles, Seychelles' native people, showcase this fusion in their art, music, and dance.
These musical folks love to sing, dance, and don traditional masks and instruments like zez, bonm, makalapo, and tam tam. Moutia, a rhythmic chanting dance, is a hit, brought to the islands from Africa by refugees.
The Creoles throw festivals celebrating their language, music, and culture. The Creole Festival in October is the jackpot—it's a week-long fiesta that's a break from the everyday grind. Picture a blend of cultures, exotic cuisines, music, drinks, and dance with a multi-racial twist. Don't miss the chance to soak up this unique mix if you're planning Seychelles vacations. It's a cultural feast you won't forget, and you will probably brag about it to your friends.
