1912: Praslin Island Regatta, Seychelles, Indian Ocean This evocative photograph captures the excitement and spirit of the Praslin Island Regatta, held in the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean off the coast of Praslin Island, Seychelles, in 1912. The regatta, a cherished annual tradition, brought together sailors from near and far to compete in a series of thrilling races. The image showcases a moment of intense competition as several boats, their sails billowing in the wind, race towards the finish line. The coastal backdrop of Praslin Island's lush greenery and pristine white sand beaches adds to the picturesque scene. The turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean stretch out in the background, their tranquility momentarily disrupted by the energy and movement of the boats. The 1910s were a time of great change and progress in the Seychelles, with the islands starting to attract tourists and develop their infrastructure. The Praslin Island Regatta, with its rich history and connection to the sea, was an important event that showcased the islands' natural beauty and the resilient and adventurous spirit of its people. This photograph, from The On Call in Africa Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the simple joy of sailing and the camaraderie of competition were at the heart of life on Praslin Island.
