The Tourism Department’s website was launched in 2017, declared as the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development by the United Nations.

Joining the Tourism, Civil Aviation, Ports and Marine Ministry in May 2018, with a strong environmental background, my vision is very much aligned with this theme.

Although I was first appointed as minister in February 2015, and assigned the Environment, Energy and Climate Change portfolio, after having held several high level positions in that same ministry, tourism is not entirely new to me. I have kept abreast of developments in the industry and made my own contribution as a former board member of the Seychelles Tourism Board.

Holding the tourism portfolio, now provides an excellent opportunity to shift my efforts, from taking care of the bedrock of Seychelles tourism -- the natural environment -- to ensuring that discerning visitors get to discover and experience the true qualities of the Seychelles islands as a world class destination.

My vision is to use my knowledge and experience in environment stewardship, coupled with a strong partnership with the trade, to ensure that Seychelles becomes a model for sustainable tourism to the world, enriched by the creole culture and the hospitality of our people.

I strongly believe in partnership and I trust that all of these can be achieved through close collaboration with all stakeholders, be it government, private sector and civil society.

Welcome to the Tourism Department website.

Our website contains all of the Tourism Department’s public documents ranging from the Tourism Masterplan, Strategic Plan as well as all government approved tourism policies.

This website is a useful tool to anyone interested in launching a tourism business. We have made available all of our minimum requirements needed for you to set up. These information are available for download.

We have also opted for a more interactive website with a number of applications such as live chats and contact us where one can seek, request and obtain information directly from the department. Through these applications we aim to better advice the public on a timely manner.

Please feel free to browse through our website to know more about the Tourism Department and its functions and do not hesitate to contact us.
