Description:
Please note: the prices listed refer to 1 or 2 people and are per night, including full board, not including drinks (except those mentioned below)..
Day 1: Mahé - St. Anne Marine Park
Set off from Commercial House Building One, Eden Island, Mahé, and sail for Saint Anne Marine Park, a wonderful anchor spot where you will spend your first night.
Day 2: St. Anne Marine Park - Cocos Island - La Digue
On day two you will visit the Saint Anne Marine Park, which is ideal for snorkelling. After lunchtime, you’ll snorkel around Cocos Island, which consists of large granite boulders that have been shaped over years by the wind and sea. This island is a real sight thanks to its harmonious colours and shapes, and the underwater world is just as attractive thanks to the wide range of fish species that swim there. Finally, the anchor point for the night is the harbour on La Digue.
Day 3: La Digue
Rent a bike and discover this beautiful island. In the shade of palm trees, ride alongside houses with palm-tree canopies above you, and visit stunning beaches with impressive granite boulders. Here you can find numerous picturesque postcard images that look like they were created just for you. In fact, La Digue is perhaps the most beautiful island in the Seychelles; there are no cars here either, people get around by bike, ox cart, or on horseback. Again, you will spend the night in the harbour on La Digue.
Day 4: La Digue - Cousin - Baie St. Anne (Praslin)
Start the day with a visit to Cousin Island. This island has been a nature reserve since 1968 where rare bird species and giant tortoises live. At midday, you will set sail for Praslin, where you simply have to visit the National Park Vallée de Mai, whose fantastic nature was incorporated into the UNESCO World Heritage list. The palm trees that are perhaps the main symbol of the Seychelles are the endemic Coco de Mer trees, which are more than 40 metres home and sway back and forth in the wind, with a calming sound as the breeze brushes its leaves. The night will be spent anchored in Baie St. Anne.
Day 5: Baie St. Anne - Grand Soeur - Curieuse (or Anse Petite Cour, Praslin).
Grand Soeur consists of 2 stony and rocky hills that are joined by a small coconut plantation. On this day, you will enjoy a barbeque on the beach, visit the island, and have time for various watersports if you like, before spending the night in Curieuse or at Anse Petite Cour.
Day 6: Curieuse - Saint Pierre - Anse Volbert or Anse Lazio (Praslin).
Curieuse is part of the Marine National Park. More than 100 giant tortoises live here. After lunch you will reach the small island of Saint Pierre, which is an assembly of various granite boulders and is typical for the Seychelles, topped off with a handful of tall palm trees that sway in the wind. Photographed hundreds of times, and printed millions of times in touristic magazines across the world, it is a spectacular sight. Discover the underwater scenery too, before spending the night anchored at Anse Volbert or Anse Lazio.
Day 7: Anse Volbert or Anse Lazio (Praslin) - Mahé
Today you will have time for snorkelling, swimming, and other watersport activities on one of the most beautiful beaches on Praslin. In the afternoon, it’s time to head back towards Mahé. Your evening meal and night will be spent anchored at Anse Major.
Day 8: Anse Major (Mahé) - Silhouette
Time for some watersports in the idyllic Anse Major bay in the north-west of Mahé. This spot is rarely visited, as you can only reach it via hiking or by sea. After lunch, you will head to Silhouette Island, before enjoying dinner and sleeping anchored there.
Day 9: Silhouette - Beau Vallon
Silhouette lies 30 km north-west of Mahé. Its hills are surrounded by a lush, tropical forest and will remind you of Mahé, with coconut trees lining the beach and wonderful granite formations that might remind you of La Digue. Walk through the lush vegetation of the rainforest before spending some time enjoying watersports and heading for Beau Vallon.
Day 10: Beau Vallon, Mahé - Eden Island Marina
Discover the long beach of Beau Vallon, surrounded by untouched nature, with plenty of time to relax, go snorkelling, swimming, or kayaking. After dinner, you will set sail for Eden Island Marina. This yacht harbour is one of the most famous private marinas worldwide, and is home to bars, restaurants, and shops aplenty. Enjoy dinner and spend the night in the marina.

Disembark early between 05.30 and 08.30 in the Eden Island Marina after breakfast.

The highlight of our trip!!! In my opinion, there is no better way to explore the Seychelles. You are somewhere different every day and there is so much to see and do - you can't get more than that!!! As well as exploring numerous small islands, we snorkeled with whale sharks and fished for wahoo and bonito. The food on board was excellent and the daily sundowner with good music was a delight! Simply fantastic!!! Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
The cleanliness left a lot to be desired. The counter with the coffee machine, the outside table, the floor and the doors were mostly not really clean. The cook didn't like it when you asked for extras for breakfast, such as a boiled egg. There was only toast every day and no other types of bread. Cheese was also rarely available. We were completely satisfied with the variety of fruit, jams and coffee. It would have been nice if there had been sausage too. The skipper was not particularly communicative and gave very little information. He also hardly dealt with cases that occurred out of the ordinary, such as water dripping through the window into the cabin, or the toilet flushing no longer working in one cabin. Although we mentioned my upcoming birthday at check-in in the office, we were told to report it to the skipper on board, which we did the day before my birthday. He then just told us that he couldn't take my birthday into account. He and the cook showed this on my birthday by not even congratulating me. Apart from that, we were very happy with the size and condition of the catamaran. The itinerary was also completely fine. Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
