Timetable Seychelles
Beware, in general in the Seychelles we live with the sun. Breakfast is served between 7am and 9.30am. For meals, restaurants are open every day, generally from 12:30 to 2pm for the last order and from 6:30 to 9:30pm for the last order too. Takeaways are open from lunch to dinner without interruption, but close at 7 or 8 pm.
Budget & Tips Seychelles
For lunch on the go, take-away restaurants offer take-away trays. While you'll find a few burgers, it's mostly rice and freshly prepared fish that are on the menu. Good food, lots of it, at a low price. Expect to pay between SR60 and SR90 (€4 and €6) for a tray. A great way to have lunch on the beach and have more freedom for dinner.
What costs extra Seychelles
If the bill can go up quickly, no unpleasant surprises when it comes time to pay for the meal. Prices are quoted inclusive of all taxes at virtually all shops and restaurants (with rare exceptions).
The local way Seychelles
Go to the Victoria market to buy some excellent fruit, or to Anse Royale when you return from fishing, to find some good fish for self-catering. In Beau Vallon, the small pedestrian road that runs along the beach between the Savoy and the Boat House is home to food-trucks and small stalls selling local specialities. And, all the time, you can grab your take-away tray or cook in one of the many self-catering restaurants in the area.
Kids Seychelles
Children are always welcome! Baby chairs and children's menus are de rigueur in all restaurants. Even the Creole buffets offer prices for kids. Often, coloring pages are provided to keep the toddlers busy while enjoying a curry or a lobster.
Smokers Seychelles
As in France, the restaurants are non-smoking, except on the terrace, of course.
Seychelles : Take a break
Timetable Seychelles
Mind you, you're not in Ibiza! Most hotel bars close at midnight. Some nightclubs extend the evening until 1 or 2 a.m. on weekends.
Budget & Tips Seychelles
If Seychellois often take a cooler to rest on the beach, it's because, overall, having a drink is still quite expensive, as is the destination.
Age restrictions Seychelles
As in France, you have to be of legal age to enter a bar and the majority is set at 18 years old.
What's very local Seychelles
Enjoy the sunset with a few SeyBrew, the local beer, on Beau Vallon beach or at the nearby Beach Shak. Rebelote in the center of the great Côte d'Or beach or at Anse Lazio.
