Why use an eSIM in Seychelles?
Seychelles is a luxury Indian Ocean archipelago known for granite boulder beaches, coral reefs, and exclusive island resorts. A local Seychelles eSIM keeps you connected at local rates as you island hop, without the expensive roaming fees Canadian carriers charge for Indian Ocean travel.
Common Questions
Does eSIM coverage work across the Seychelles islands?
Coverage is generally reliable on the main islands of Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue. Smaller, more remote private islands may have limited signal.
How much data do I need for a Seychelles trip?
A smaller to mid-size plan is typically sufficient for a resort-focused stay relying on messaging and light browsing.
Does a Seychelles eSIM work in Mauritius or Réunion?
No. A Seychelles eSIM covers Seychelles only. Neighbouring Indian Ocean islands each require their own plan.
Can I keep my Canadian number while using this eSIM?
Yes, but to avoid any roaming charges, turn your Canadian carrier line off entirely in your phone's cellular settings before you land. Disabling data roaming alone isn't enough on its own, so do not use Airplane Mode, as this disables your eSIM too. Use your eSIM for all data, and use WhatsApp, FaceTime, or iMessage for calls and messages. If you need to receive an OTP or two-factor text, turn your Canadian line on briefly, then off again. When you return home, turn it back on and everything returns to normal.
