      Later on, when they realized that the place they had landed was not India, they started referring to it as the 'West Indies' - in the meaning 'Indies to the west of Europe' - to differentiate it from the east Indies, i.e. the Indies that lay to the east of Europe, the actual Indies.

    Hi, several mentions here, Im Seychellois first of all, appreciate that you've done a documentary video about my home. With regards to the best beaches, we know who has the most beautiful beaches, Anse Source D'Argent on La Digue, Best beaches Beau Vallon beach or Anse Royale Beach on Mahe are popular picks. There's also another reserve on La Digue that was not mentioned and that is Veuve Reserve where you can find another unique bird, The Veuve, There's also the question of rivalry ummm... we call people on Praslin, Pralinois or zans Pralen(Creole language) or people from La Digue Island Diguoise or Zans La Digue(Creole language) and other activities like Hiking or island hoping is also available. Aside from those mentions Spot on👍👍. All that is left now is for you guys to experience Seychelles for yourselves, With regards to ethnicity you got that right, we use another word to describe this that I will coin from the Seychelles Tourism Board, "We are a melting pot of culture". Thank you.

This is the time when crime can occur, but generally in the daytime, its generally safe, The Pirate Situation has gone relatively quiet no new activity so far and we were getting aid from other countries.
