BEACH SHAK
Read moreMr. Eddy had the rich idea of opening a straw hut to drink excellent cocktails, including the very popular mojitos and rasta mai tai.

To the sound of a DJ on Fridays and a live band on Sundays, Seychellois and tourists mingle merrily here at dusk, and the address now offers great barbecue dishes.
TRADER VIC'S (THE H RESORT)
Read moreWith its Polynesian decor, the Trader Vic's offers an original setting to drink excellent cocktails. This international chain was founded by Victor Bergeron, one of the two creators of Mai Tai. It is therefore highly recommended to taste one of the many derivatives of this mythical cocktail at the bar, where the atmosphere can take it up a notch at the end of the evening. As for the restaurant, dinner is enjoyed while listening to music, since a Cuban band comes to perform every night. Beachwear to be avoided.

But the setting is really nice, with tables on the beach and candles that light up here and there as soon as the night falls, we have made it a really recommended address to go and drink a good cocktail or a Seybrew at the end of his day in Praslin. Cheers!
FISH TRAP RESTAURANT
Read moreThis Fish Trap is a very nice option for a good breakfast or for a drink. Because if the British breakfast (with eggs, beans, grilled mushrooms, toasts, drinks...) allows you to take strength, the rest of the menu is a bit disappointing.

You can even enjoy a piece of beach and some deckchairs... Ideal to sip a cocktail or a Creole punch when the sun declines.

If you still want to enjoy the place, there's also the grill, which is very good but admittedly a little expensive (between SR 475 and SR 625 per person, with two or three meats or fish).
BAR BOARDWALK

On a wooden deck, you can listen to live music on weekends and be served a mojito, a caipirinha, a sex on the beach or a fresh mountain, or even a Guinness or a Coke.
