Seychelles news update – Royals on a Creole paradise honeymoon?

SEYCHELLES’ BEST KEPT SECRET?

Information is starting to appear that the recently married royal couple of Prince William, now Duke of Cambridge and his wife Catherine, will after all enjoy their honeymoon in the tropical Creole island paradise of the Seychelles. It is understood, though not independently confirmed at this stage – even the best regular sources remain shtumm, in itself a dead giveaway – that they will on arrival at the International Airport in Mahe be flown by helicopter – Prince William himself is notable a British navy helicopter search and rescue pilot – to a secluded small island where they will enjoy their honeymoon bliss free from prying eyes and away from the spot light of the international paparazzi.

The Seychelles has in the past hosted high profile visitors of this kind and made sure that privacy was totally respected and ensured, by throwing a wide security cordon around the chosen location, which allowed the ‘special visitors’ their privacy while thousands of other holiday makers on the archipelago would not be the wiser for it.

If indeed therefore the royal couple will honeymoon in the Seychelles, it would be for one an affirmation of the unique status of the islands as a world class destination and give their tourism industry an ‘afterburner’ effect when going out to promote the resorts, hotels, villas and bed and breakfasts’ in the global arena.
