Full description

Start with pickup from your accommodation in Praslin and relax on a comfortable transfer to the Grand Anse Main Beach. Check-in and enjoy a short safety briefing provided by your program organizer. Hop aboard a comfortable boat and feel the salty air on your face as you glide across the west coast of the island.

Stop for a refreshing dip at the secluded, white-sand beach of Anse Georgette. Head to the uninhabited island of St. Pierre for two snorkeling stops. Swim over colorful coral formations as tropical fish flitter around you. Have the chance to spot parrotfish, surgeonfish, and clownfish (Nemo).

Next, continue to Curieuse island where hundreds of giant tortoises roam free in unspoiled wilderness. Sit down to BBQ lunch that features fresh products that have been procured from the islands. Sip soft drinks along with your meal before setting off on a hike through a mangrove forest to an idyllic beach where you can cool off with a swim.

Start your return journey, where your guide points out some points of interest and provides you with some facinating local history. Transfer back to your accommodation by car once you arrive back at the Grand Anse Main Beach.
