What you will expect
You will experience what's above and below the ocean of the islands surrounding Praslin with our beautifully designed boat. (During Covid-19 times some activities may be done in different order)
We will start with snorkeling in the morning around the beautiful St. Pierre island. Right after we are going to visit the famous Curieuse island where you will go on a small moderate hike for around 40 mins and have the chance to see the giant tortoises in the wild and take nice photos with them.
The boat will bring you directly to the entry of Curieuse island. Right in front of the entry you can see spread all over around the grass the famous giant tortoises. The moderate hike starts from the point where the tortoises are, go around the coast through lovely mangroves and a beautiful path with a nice wooden bridge and finish at the famous Doctor’s house, where a typical creole BBQ lunch is going to wait for you.
For lunch you are going to get a fresh fish and chicken BBQ : salad and seasonal fruits. After lunch you will have the chance to visit the famous Doctor's house which is turned into a museum containing information about Curieuse Island's history. In front of the house an amazing white sandy beach is waiting for you, where you can relax. Your boat is going to wait for you on that beach ready to pick you up to return to Praslin.
