Route description

South of the equator, north of Madagascar, lost in the Indian Ocean, in the middle of a bright underwater world, they are located - the Seychelles Islands.
The very beginning of 2025 is on the calendar and our sailing catamaran is going
on a heavenly New Year's journey through the exotic tropics!

We are waiting for the picturesque flora and fauna of the Seychelles, giant land turtles, deserted beaches that can only be reached by water, nights under the stars, a pleasant company of lucky people in love with the ocean and, of course, a fun New Year celebration!

The trip takes place on a comfortable catamaran with a professional captain,
and the Creole chef, who knows the traditional cuisine of the Seychelles, is responsible for the food. In general, we have combined everything you have dreamed of for a long time on the journey.

Where do we live and on what:

on comfortable Leopard 45 catamarans. The yachts have everything you need for a comfortable life during the week: spacious relaxation areas outside and inside, 4 cabins with double beds

to sea and stand at the nearest island
for overnight parking.

After breakfast and swimming, we will go out
towards the small islands of the St. Peter's National Park. Anna's. We will swim, dive with a mask and just enjoy the warm sea!
In the afternoon, we will cross to Praslin Island, where there will be a night anchorage. Along the way, those who wish will take
the helm and learn how to steer a course,
someone will try to set sails, knit basic knots, and someone will get carried away with fishing.

In the evening, we will arrange a New Year's party: we will make up in festive sequins, choose the best outfits, and the cook will cook dinner!

Day 3
o. Praslin — O. La Digue
In the morning we swim, enjoy the wild nature of the Indian Ocean
and go to a small island - Coconut! We will swim with masks, land
on the shore and look for the Seychelles nectarian bird, which lives on small
and deserted islands.

In the evening we will make a short trip to the island of La Digue, where we can disembark
and go to the village.

Day 4
La Digue Island
We wake up on one of the most beautiful islands of Seychelles - La Digue. Today we plan to take bicycles for the whole day
and go for a ride on the paradise beaches!

The ideal plan would be to stroll
through the former Union Estate
and drive to Anse-Sur-D'Argent Beach
with its famous boulders. In the evening we will gather for dinner and share our impressions of the day!

Day 5
La Digue Island — Curiosity Island
Today we are waiting for the island of Curiosity - the habitat of giant turtles. On the way, we will stop at the rocks, where you can get great snorkeling.
If desired, you can go
on a small trekking trip on the island of Curiosity
and visit the national park
with charming turtles
who love when their necks are scratched!
We will spend the night at an anchorage
near an uninhabited island.

Day 6
. Curiosity Island — La Digue Island
Today we are heading towards the island of La Digue to stop
on its western side, where there is a charming Coconut beach. These places can only be reached by water!
We swim, snorkel, look for wild turtles, maybe even land on the beach, but this is not accurate (depends on the surf). We will spend the night at an anchorage near an uninhabited beach.

Day 7 and 8
La Digue Island — Marina Eden, Mahe Island
Today we are going towards the home marina. We will make the transition in 4-5 hours,
along the way we will consolidate our sailing skills, we will fish, just relax on the bow of the yacht with a glass of something pleasant.
We will stand in front of the home marina
at the small island of Saint Park. Ann, where we swim, dive in masks and snorkels.
On the morning of the 8th day, we wake up, have breakfast and leave the yacht before 8:00.
