Very interesting information about the early days of Seychelles, Small but well maintained museum. The museum is located in next to the main post office in Victoria, the capital of the Seychelles, on Mahe Island. The displays include sections on botany, zoology, geology and anthropology. There are also some items related to the history of the Seychelles People's Militia, the Seychelles People's Liberation Army.

Good to see all the fern and fauna, critters and crawlers indigenous to the Island. But a little small and lacking. On the whole, still go

I must admit this is not the best Natural History Museum I’ve been to. But there’s not a lot else to do or compare it to in Victoria! So it’s worth a visit. It will take 1 hour maximum to see and read all of the exhibits. Entrance fee for residents = 5 rupees Non-residents = 15 rupees (April 2018)
