Where is Praslin Island Airport?

Praslin is an island in the Seychelles, just to the northeast of the larger island of Mahé. The airport is located at Grand Anse, and is also commonly known as Iles des Palmes Airport.

What to do in Praslin

Most visitors to the palm-fringed island of Praslin come here for its pristine, paradise beaches and crystal clear waters. The very best of the bunch is Anse Lazio. It has been voted the best beach in the world on several occasions, but despite this it is not overly crowded. It’s well worth a visit at least once during your stay.

While you’re here, bring some snorkelling gear with you to explore the views under the waves. Of course, if you’re an experienced diver, or you’re looking to take lessons, then you’ll find everything you need here in the Seychelles. It’s a top spot for divers from around the world, thanks to its clear seas and colourful sealife. You can also take a boat excursion and try some deep sea fishing, island hopping or simply enjoy a swim.

If you’re looking to make your holiday an unforgettable one, then the best way to do this is with a helicopter tour of the island. There are a range of scenic tours available, offering views of the coast and mountains and providing an easy way to visit more of the Seychelles.

Types of HolidayTaxis transfer vehicles
March 31, 2023

At HolidayTaxis, we recognize that every traveler is different and may have their own preferences and requirements for their airport transfers. To accommodate this, we offer a diverse range of transfer vehicles for our customers to choose from, each with its own set of benefits and advantages.

For example, if you're traveling in a large group, our minibus or shared airport shuttle transfers might be the best option for you, as they can comfortably accommodate a larger number of passengers and their luggage. On the other hand, if you're traveling with just one or two companions, a private car may be more suitable for you as they offer a more intimate and personalised experience.
