Seychelles is an appealing destination for visitors from Eswatini, known for its breathtaking beaches, lush landscapes, and clear waters. The islands attract around 200,000 international tourists each year, drawn by their natural beauty and luxury. Given that approximately 300,000 Swazis travel abroad annually, a portion of them may find Seychelles to be an attractive option for their travels.
Seychelles is generally considered safe for tourists, including those from Eswatini. While Eswatini has a higher murder rate of 12.7 per 100,000 people compared to Seychelles' 4.7, the overall crime environment in Seychelles appears more favorable. According to the Global Organized Crime Index, Seychelles scores better in several categories, with lower indices for organized crime and state crime compared to Eswatini. For example, the index for mafia groups is 2.0 in Seychelles versus 1.5 in Eswatini, indicating a relatively lower presence of organized crime. However, it is important for travelers to remain vigilant and take standard safety precautions while visiting.
