Is Seychelles part of Africa or Asia?
The main group of islands, which is the one to which the name SechChelles belongs, is located at the north-eastern end and includes about thirty islands (among which the largest are Mahe, Praslin, La Digue, Silhouette) formed essentially by granite rocks of the Paleozoic, for a total area of about 240 km2.
The other islands (Amirante, Aldabra, Cosmoledo, etc.) are mainly coral. The climate is subequatorial with monsoon influences (S. are between 4 lat and 11 lat S and are affected by the regime of the winds of the Indian Ocean), with very abundant rainfall, even greater than 3000 mm per year. The original vegetation, very luxuriant, has been preserved only in the internal parts of the larger islands.
