Nice Restaurants

With the entire island only 17 miles long and a few miles wide, Mahe reigns supreme in pristine beaches. And how picturesque can you get? A small mountain chain runs down the center of Mahe, and the land flattens out as it reaches the shoreline. Along the north coast there are both beautiful beaches and really nice restaurants and hotels. On the flat ring around Mahe is where the main road runs and connects towns and villages all around. Beau Vallon sits northwest and was the main beach in the Seychelles for many years until tourist started taking a greater interest and it became easier to get to the nearby smaller islands. Today Beau Vallon is still beautiful, but it’s not as busy as it once was. So grab your snorkel and head here first.

Algajola, Corsica

by Dave Jackson

I love the sort of village Algajola, Corsica, is. It’s small and very old in the Balagne Region on Corsica’s northwest coast. Algajola is very old France - built on a rock outcroppings, this fishing village has a very cool citadel. The citadel was built during the Genoese rule. What makes Algajola a beautiful beach village is that the harbor is on the west side of town, and the beach - Plage Aregno - is around 1 km long, winds right to the village.
