Praslin is again smaller than Mahé but larger than La Digue. It felt far more like a resort island than the other two.
In addition to beaches, the Vallee de Mai Nature Reserve is on Praslin. This is where you will find the Coco de Mer palm, which has the largest seed in the world. Coming from an island nation ourselves, having banana plants, mango trees and jackfruit pointed out to us wasn't terribly exciting but seeing the Coco de Mer palm certainly was.
We visited Anse Lazio and Cote D'Or beaches, which were both utterly gorgeous. The former is considered the best one in Praslin so it is rather crowded but not enough to stop you sunbathing or taking a dip in the ocean. But you have to watch out for the tide because it can be a bit unpredictable.
