Become one with nature as only Seychelles can offer it, on this day of discovery and adventure commencing with a visit to the Ste Anne Marine Park, with its spectacular views of the surrounding islands. Our Reef Safari will introduce you to the myriad wonders of Seychelles’ underwater world by glass-bottom boat, your ‘eye in crystal waters’ and to the thrill of fish feeding before transporting you to one of the park’s island jewels: Cerf.
Cerf is the largest island of the Ste. Anne Group, named after the vessel of one of Seychelles’ early explorers and has a long tradition of settlement, first as a coconut plantation and now as a habitation for people escaping the ‘hustle and bustle’ of neighbouring Mahé. Here, we will tempt your palate with a traditional Creole lunch, allowing you time to explore the rare beauty of the island, swim in its crystal waters and relax on its silver-sanded beaches. This is a place where stunning, natural beauty and time-honoured island ways will conspire to provide you with the time of your life…and the memories to match.
Let ‘Oplezir’ transport you to another world: that of Praslin’s magnificent satellite islands and their stunning natural beauty. Your day begins as you ride the ocean waves to La Digue’s neighbouring island of Praslin, from where you will be whisked away to Sister Island, surrounded by sapphire waters, where a guide will introduce you to some of the island’s secrets.
After providing you with ample time to swim, snorkel or just relax on the beach, we will take you on board ‘Oplezir’ for a Creole-style BBQ lunch as we head off for more ocean fun at stunning Coco or spectacular Felicité Island before heading home.
