Wellness Tips
Make the most of your wellness experience.
Book spa treatments at least 24-48 hours in advance during peak season (July-August, December-January) as luxury resort spas fill quickly
Many standalone day spas in Victoria offer the same treatments as resort spas at 40-60% lower prices - excellent value for longer treatments
The dry season (May-September) is ideal for outdoor yoga and beach wellness activities with lower humidity and cooler temperatures
Coco de mer oil is a uniquely Seychellois wellness ingredient - look for authentic products at the Seychelles Island Foundation gift shop in Victoria
Several resorts offer complimentary wellness activities including morning yoga, stretch classes, and guided meditative beach walks - check with your hotel
The humid tropical climate means staying hydrated is essential during wellness activities - drink coconut water for natural electrolyte replenishment
