Please, try not to hate us too much after this one... ;)

Praslin, pronounced "prah-len," is the second largest island of the Seychelles, a tropical paradise with white sand beaches and crystal clear turquoise water where we spent five incredible days. 

We treated ourselves to a hotel situated right on Anse Petite Cour, in a Marine National Park, with its own exclusive beach protected by reef, which was excellent for snorkeling, swimming and kayaking. The resort also had five giant tortoises, quite the pleasant surprise for us, since we didn't think we'd see them until visiting La Digue! 

I could go on and on about how beautiful it was, but I think it's probably better to let the photos speak for themselves.
