DAY 1: Praslin - Curieuse
For your embarkation, the crew will meet you in the bay of Anse Possession, from 10:30 am. You will have the day to get used to the local climate and get to know the other passengers. Don't hesitate to jump in the water to refresh yourself. At the end of the afternoon, the skipper will cast off to reach Curieuse. Dinner and overnight on board.

DAY 2 : Curieuse
You disembark at Curieuse in the morning and set off to discover this uninhabited island. While walking along the various paths hidden in the mangrove forest, you will find a giant turtle farm that takes care of the protection of these reptiles. Barbecue lunch (depending on weather conditions). In the afternoon, various water sports will be offered to you. Dinner and night on board.

DAY 3 : Curieuse - La Digue
This morning, you're leaving in the direction of La Digue. This island is particularly well known for its enormous granite rocks that litter the beach of Anse Source d'Argent. We advise you to rent bicycles (traditional means of transport of the natives) to travel around the island at your own pace. The town of Union Estate is home to a copra (coconut oil) factory, a vanilla plantation and a shipyard. Dinner and overnight on board.

DAY 4: La Digue - Praslin
You set sail in the direction of Praslin and anchor in front of the Côte d'Or beach. During your stopover, you can visit the Vallée de Mai, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Here you will discover the famous coconut trees, also called "coco-buttocks" because of the unique shape of their nuts. If you keep your eyes peeled, you may see the majestic black parrot spreading its wings. You will return on board and relax near the small granite island of St-Pierre. Dinner and overnight on board.

DAY 5 : Praslin - Cousin
Your navigation in the heart of the Indian Ocean continues on Cousin. This once private island is now a protected reserve, inhabited by many endemic species (giant turtles, seabirds ...). After lunch, you will return to the island of Praslin and take advantage of the nautical equipment available on board to explore the seabed. Dinner and overnight on board.

DAY 6 : Cousin - Curieuse
The skipper lifts anchor and sets sail for Anse Lazio, considered to be one of the most beautiful beaches in the Seychelles. This little corner of paradise is ideal for snorkeling before basking in the shade of the coconut palms. You will return to Curieuse Bay in the evening and take advantage of your last hours to contemplate this sea with azure reflections. Dinner and night on board.

DAY 7 : Curieuse - Praslin
You'll disembark at Anse Possession Cove after breakfast, about 8:30.
