Cruises in SEYCHELLES : destinations

Granite Islands

The name of the Granite Archipelago comes from our world famous granite rocks. They are some of the oldest rocks on earth. The Granite Islands surround the main island, Mahé, where Victoria, the capital, is located. This archipelago has two satellites, Praslin and La Digue. The cultural and economic wealth of the nation is concentrated on these interior islands.

The Far Islands

These islands are made up of five groups of islands and the Far Islands are located on the Seychelles plateau. There are 72 of them, made up of sand banks, or coral atolls, and they are located at a distance that varies between 230 and 1150 kilometers from Mahé. Not as well known as their granite cousins because geographically distant and quite often, uninhabited, these miniature original worlds are able to offer intact places to shelter our many types of local marine life.

For 10 day or more cruises, here is an example of the Amirantes circuit :

Mahé - African banks - Poivre - Saint-Joseph - Desroches - Mahé.

Discovery cruises in Seychelles

Combination water and land trips !

This is the ideal type of cruise to visit the Seychelles.Discover a new island every day, and organize your own activities: try your hand at sailing, deep-sea or fly fishing, snorkeling, diving (on Turquoise) and enjoy the most beautiful beaches of the Indian Ocean...

For a week, we can propose a visit of the Granite Islands: Mahé, Praslin, la Digue, Curieuse, Petite Soeur, Grande Soeur, Silhouette ...

Depending on what you want, and the weather. The cruise plan is generally respected, but for safety reasons, it sometimes has to be modified. Your skipper is in charge of your safety, and for this reason, his decisions must be respected. If everyone agrees, you can request schedule and itinerary modifications. It's true liberty!!!

Diving cruises in Seychelles

Baptism, initiation, intermediate, exploration and training.

These diving cruises are designed with the needs of enthusiastic divers in mind, for whom their first priority is to discover deep-sea life in the Seychelles.

Whatever your level may be, diving in the Seychelles rhymes with unforgettable meetings. A multi-colored world where you will meet exceptionally rich undersea marine and plant life. Meet sea turtles, thornback rays, barracudas, groupers, sharks, moray eels, napoleons, and other marine species each time you dive.

As in our discovery cruises, you will be able to visit islands such as the Amirantes, Alphonse, Farquhar, and Aldabra that are distant...in cruises lasting over 10 days. Diving near the granite islands is remarkable, but the distant and untouched islands will give you another dimension.
