Trip details
Go on a full day Glass-bottom Boat Tour, visiting Curieuse Island Reserve, St. Pierre and Anse La Farine and take a scenic cruise along the Praslin Island coast. From Praslin, after being picked up from your hotel, you will cruise to your first snorkelling stop, after which you will continue on to Curieuse Island. Here you can relax on the beach and/or take a guided tour along the nature trail, through the mangrove, to the Giant Tortoise park. After spending some time with these impressive creatures, you will be served a sumptuous BBQ lunch and get to sample a SeyBrew local beer.
After lunch, your tour resumes from Curieuse Island, heading over to St. Pierre Island - located just North of Praslin - where you will have the opportunity to take pictures. You will then have another chance to snorkel - either at St. Pierre Island or Anse La Farine (depending on the sea conditions). And, of course, you can view the underwater world through the boat's glass bottom during the entire trip. Anse La Farine is a barrier reef on the Southwest of Praslin, where the corals have been less damaged by excessive tourist activity. After snorkelling, enjoy a refreshing Rum Cocktail while cruising back to Praslin before being taken back to your hotel.
