About this experience

Churches in Anse Georgette is a guided tour of the small Roman Catholic chapel and surrounding religious sites on the northwest coast of Praslin, Seychelles. The activity focuses on the local congregation's history, Creole architecture, and the role of faith in this remote village. Visitors see the simple wooden altar, carved statues, and the cemetery where islanders have been buried since the 19th century.

What to expect

  • Tour lasts 45 minutes and includes entry to the chapel, the adjacent parish hall, and the historic cemetery
  • A local guide explains the chapel's construction in 1932 using coral stone and timber from the island
  • Visitors view the original baptismal font and a 1950s wooden crucifix carved by a Praslin craftsman
  • The tour suits travellers interested in Creole culture and religious history rather than beach activities
  • Groups are limited to 10 people, and the tour runs on weekdays at 10:00 and 14:00
  • The visit ends with a short walk to the nearby mission bell, which still rings for Sunday services
