Full description
This is a must-do experience. Full of sensations and vibes. Fabulous and fantastic right from the start. The cruise in itself is a great pleasure. Enjoy the different colours of the ocean. See what you cannot see from the ground. Spectacular sea views and views on the islands already before landing on the islands, Ile Plate and Ilot Gabriel. Our catamaran will drop the anchor near the islands up to where it can go as per the water depth. We shall then transport you in a dinghy to Ilot Gabriel for about more or less 45-60 minutes. Will then pick you up and bring you to the Ile Plate where we take care of you and serve you food and lunch. This is fabulous. We offer the chance not only to land on the island, but also eat on the island. Be in full rhythm and tuned to nature and green environment. Drinks also provided. After that, feel free to to snorkel as per your wish and as per your abilities and aptitudes. Relax and enjoy. Have siesta on the island before embarking again on the catamaran to sail to Coin de Mire, the third island. The catamaran will pass nearby, as close as possible. Setting foot on the island is not done. Then we continue our way. The enjoyment at sea will continue and upon arrival inland, you will be more than happy for having spent a day, unique and memorable.

Know before you go

  • The captain reserves the right to cancel/reschedule activity if weather conditions warrant it. Safety matters and captain decision is final.
  • It can also be that due to bad conditions at sea ( normally in winter between june-september) , it does not become possible to do all the three islands as in the description. We would then kindly rely on the understanding of our valued guest. We wish our valued guests to understand that when we are at sea, we want to do our job fully to the utmost satisfaction of our valued customers. However if sea conditions make it impossible, then we are forced not to venture, as safety matters most.

Die Fahrt war super, die Guides sehr freundlich. Mit Getränken und Musik ging es 1,5 Stunden auf dem Katamaran bis zu den Nordinseln. Dann hatten wir 30 Minuten zum schnorcheln, dann gab es Mittagessen. Das essen war durchschnittlich. Danach ging es rüber zur nächsten Insel, dort haben wir 1h Zeit zum Schnorcheln gehabt. Das hat Spaß gemacht, war aber etwas kurzweilig.

Jean Pierre at the meeting point was rude unpleasant and we were regretting our choice as we were asked to be there at 8:30 but we started one hour later . The staff on the boat was nice and fun . The food is ok but simple . No snorkelling stop between islands as described Snorkelling only from the beach

Attention! Always go through your contact person "holidays oh soleil-IKBAL" and never take services from Jean-Pierre, dishonest and in bad faith!!! Very good trip with the team, welcoming and very informative during the journey and on the islands. Decent meals and drinks, very friendly atmosphere on the catamaran. We had a wonderful day organized by Vacances Oh Soleil. The time spent on the islands was correct (1h45 on the flat island and 45 minutes on Gabriel islet). I thank IKBAL for its quality listening and after-sales service after a past incident with this famous Jean-Pierre.
