Local teas, vanilla pods and cinnamons can also be purchased. There also are several art galleries exhibiting and selling the works of local artists such as Michael Adams, along with model ships, a mainstay of Seychelles crafts. The best place to shop is in Victoria. It's also a lot of fun to wander the streets and the shops. There are a few shops on Praslin but little on the other islands.
Most larger hotels have boutiques.
Shops are open weekdays and Saturday mornings. Unfortunately, craftsmen in Seychelles also make beautiful items from turtle shell, and endangered species. International trade in these products are banned and will be confiscated upon entry to many countries including the US and most of Europe. Please do not support this practice. Other than at a few theatres and discos, most nightlife centers around the larger hotels.
