Lonely Planet's Top Experiences and Sights in the Comores and Seychelles

Named after the Arabic word for 'moon', Qamar, this poetically named but little-known archipelago is located between Madagascar and Mozambique. Like their Indian Ocean sisters, the Comoros have tropical charm: palms swing in the breeze, and the water is turquoise. Whereas Mauritius and the Seychelles have fine-tuned their high-end tourism offering over the past three decades, the Comoros have remained seemingly impervious to mass tourism.
Mother Nature was unbelievably generous with the Seychelles, a fabled paradise whose islands lie scattered across the Indian Ocean. Spellbinding beaches are the main attraction. Exquisite ribbons of sand lapped by turquoise waters and backed by lush hills, palms and boulders. Beyond the beach, diving and snorkelling are brilliant in the warm waters amid abundant marine life, while few places on the planet do ocean-side luxury quite like the Seychelles.
These are the top experiences and sights in the Comoros and Seychelles, according to Lonely Planet.
