When travelling with Cat Cocos from Mahe to Praslin or La Digue, whether aboard their Isle of Praslin Ferry or one of their other vessels, the Isle of Mahe Ferry and Isle of La Digue Ferry, passengers have the choice of both Economy and Business class travel. Economy class passengers have the option to travel in either the Coco de Mer Cabin or out on the Island Hopper Upper Deck.

Shared shuttle bus transfers to/from the Mahe, Praslin or La Digue ferry jetties are available to all Cat Cocos passengers when booking your ferry tickets with us (fees apply). Buses leave Mahe Airport up to 1 hour before the scheduled ferry departure time. Hotel pick-ups are usually between 45-90 minutes before departure, depending on how far your hotel is from the jetty.
For all Mahe ferry departures, arriving at the jetty at least 1 hour in advance is recommended, giving you time to check in your luggage. Boarding Passes are sent to you by email approx. 24 hours before departure. Should you not have your boarding pass when you get to the jetty, visit the Creole Travel Services office for assistance. Boarding time is 30 minutes before departure at the Cat Cocos Berth in Victoria; the Boarding Gate closes 5 minutes before the scheduled departure time.
