In fact, there’s so much to do that you will spend two nights here.

Now you will head for Remire, where a breathtaking sight awaits. This 10 square kilometre island offers a stunning reef that will impress even the most experienced scuba divers. 30 km to the south lie the d’Arros and St Joseph Atoll, with its beautiful lagoon. Atolls are idea for snorkelling and other watersports, and if you’re lucky you might see sharks, dolphins, turtles, rays, and manta rays, as well as numerous coral fish.

Day 6-7 Desroches Island:
Now it’s time to head back to civilisation, as the boat will set sail for Desroches, a private island where you will stop for two nights. The island also has much to offer in terms of nature, with the famous Bombay Beach serving up 14 km of beach to enjoy with its coral reef and wonderful lagoon.

Day 8-10 Bertraut Reef - Poivre Atoll – Etoile Cay - Amirante Trench – Desnoeuf:

The turtles that call this place their home will also likely come and greet you if you have some luck. After that, head further south along the Amirante Trench and past the islands of Desnoefs and Marie-Louise, where stunning fauna awaits. This spot is well-known for its bird nesting grounds.

Fans of marine life will get their money’s worth here with a scuba diving excursion or a fly-fishing trip. The St. Francois Atoll is home to two of the most beautiful islands of the archipelago in general, St. Francois and Bijoutier. This will also be the last stop of the trip, before you head to the east back towards Mahé.
