The Republic of Seychelles is an island nation located in the Indian Ocean, northeast of Madagascar. The archipelago is made of more than one hundred granite islands and flat coral atolls. Most of the population of about 90,000 is concentrated on Mahé, the largest island. The Seychelles’ government is a presidential republic with a president as both chief of state and head of government.
From the late 1550s to about the mid-1700s, the islands were a haven for pirates. France claimed the territory in 1756. After a French-English war, France ceded the area to Britain in 1814. The Seychelles gained independence in 1976. There was a period of instability, however, now the Seychelles have achieved stability and prosperity with a high per capita income, good education and health care.
Travellers are attracted by the tropical climate, the wildlife, which includes giant sea turtles, tortoises and sea bird colonies, and white sand beaches.

Seychelles中的安全性
人身安全
與大多數國家相比,塞席爾的犯罪率較低,但您需要警惕影響遊客的財產犯罪。小偷小摸發生在博瓦隆和維多利亞等旅遊區,搶包和扒手是最常見的問題。入室盜竊的目標是停放的汽車、飯店、賓館和海灘。犯罪者會在有標記和無標記的步行道上犯案。該國於 2023 年成立了旅遊警察部隊,以打擊與旅遊相關的犯罪。儘管會發生一些事件,但針對遊客的暴力犯罪並不常見。毒品販運,尤其是海洛因,在塞席爾造成了毒癮危機,該國的人均海洛因使用率位居全球高點。您可能會遇到毒品活動,尤其是在天黑後在維多利亞的 Mont Fleuri 等地區。夜間行走會增加在偏僻地區和後街的風險。小偷的目標是留有明顯貴重物品的車輛。 ATM 提款機詐騙時有發生,因此輸入 PIN 碼時請遮住鍵盤,並小心處理卡片。
極端暴力
塞席爾的恐怖主義風險極低,近期沒有發生過攻擊事件。根據2018年的數據,該國的故意殺人率為每10萬人8.73起。幫派衝突和家庭暴力是大多數暴力事件的導火線,這些事件通常影響當地人而不是遊客。槍支擁有率仍然很低,暴力犯罪更多地涉及刀具或砍刀,而不是槍支。針對遊客的武裝搶劫很少發生。組織犯罪主要集中在販毒,特別是海洛因,但很少直接影響遊客。然而,該國作為島嶼販毒中心的角色意味著這種活動潛伏在水面之下。區域海域的海盜威脅減少,但索馬利亞海岸的海盜威脅仍然存在。海盜風險從索馬利亞延伸至1000海裡,並可延伸至塞席爾的專屬經濟區。遊艇在亞丁灣、印度洋和阿拉伯海的離岸12海浬範圍內受到限制。
政治動盪
與大多數非洲國家相比,塞席爾保持著強大的政治穩定。 2020年,反對派候選人韋維爾·拉姆卡拉萬擊敗了執政43年的政黨,該國實現了權力的和平交接。 2025年10月的總統決選順利進行,沒有發生重大事件,實現了另一個和平過渡。示威活動仍然很少見。即使發生抗議活動,它們通常也涉及物價上漲等經濟問題,而不是根本的政治爭端。該國在世界銀行政治穩定指數的得分為0.76,遠高於全球平均。自由之家將塞席爾評為自由國家,得分為80分(滿分100分)。政府對安全部隊保持有效的民事控制。貪腐調查針對的是前幾屆政府的知名人物,其中包括一起涉嫌失蹤5,000萬美元外援的案件。選舉期間可能會對交通和地方服務造成輕微幹擾,但暴力事件發生的可能性不大。
應避免的區域
馬埃島的首府維多利亞,其後街小巷中有一些較危險的區域,您應該避開,尤其是在天黑之後。普拉蘭島的博瓦隆和科特多爾海灘作為旅遊熱點,犯罪率更高。維多利亞州的弗勒里山毒品活動增多,天黑後需謹慎。馬埃島通常比其他島嶼有更多的安全隱患。偏遠的海灘和孤立的地段需要格外警惕,尤其是獨自一人時。沒有標記的健行步道有迷路的風險,多變的天氣條件會增加危險性。一些遊客在自然漫步中迷路了。由於水流和水況的原因,南端的海灘在任何時候都不適合游泳。海灘缺乏一致的安全訊息和警告標誌。如果沒有當地知識,您不能假設任何海灘都是安全的。深夜人跡罕至的僻靜海灘會增加危險性。包括阿米蘭特斯島、科斯莫萊多島和阿爾達布拉島在內的外島在前往之前需要事先獲得塞席爾海事安全局的批准。
