Overview
Take a trip to Ste Anne Island on your Seychelles Vacation
Sainte Anne Island is situated 4 kilometres/2..5 miles from the main island of Mahe reached by boat in about 10 minutes on a Seychelles vacation. It is the largest of the six islands that make up the Sainte Anne Marine National Park, a natural region of abundant tropical vegetation. The island is dominated by a large mountain surrounded by lush tropical forests. It was the first place colonized by French settlers in Seychelles.
Occupying nearly a mile of undulating coastline the only sounds are rustling palm trees and gentle waves lapping at white sandy beaches. The three beaches at Sainte Anne are teeming with marine life.
The Marine National Park is home to more than 150 species of fish and other underwater life. No motorized water sports are permitted to disturb this natural paradise. Both scuba diving and snorkeling will reward the visitor here on a Seychelles vacation.

The Festes Majors are summer festivals held in the villages of Andorra. Each festival is unique to the village, with its own distinct style.
The Pyrenean Mountain scenery and tax-free shopping are two of my favourite things about travelling to Andorra.
I love learning about Nicaragua's culture and experiencing its Spanish influence in some cities. I was only there for five days, but I'll never forget how delicious the food was and how welcoming and extremely polite the people were.
Nicaragua is well known for its dramatic volcanic landscapes, lakes, rainforests, and colonial cities. I love how friendly the people are and how delicious the food is! There is always something fun to do in Nicaragua!
Festival de Los Farolitos is an annual nighttime festival held every September in the town of Ataco, where the streets, houses, and plazas are illuminated with thousands of handmade lanterns (farolitos). Families craft them using colored paper, wood, calabash gourds, or jars, each with a candle inside. Although it's tied to the eve of the Virgin Mary’s birthday, it has evolved into a cultural celebration of community, light, creativity, and town pride.
