Seychelles
Discover Seychelles
Located just over 1,500 km off the coast of East Africa, the Seychelles consist of 115 tiny islands scattered throughout the Indian Ocean. Offering good sailing weather all year round, the islands are famous for their beaches straight from the advertisements, countless endangered species of wildlife, lush flora and fauna and great opportunities for island hopping.
La Digue
Famous for its picturesque beaches, La Digue is an island of extraordinary beauty. It is home to many species of wildlife, which can be observed from the Veuve Nature Reserve.
Itinerary
Calm wind conditions typically prevail in the Seychelles. While there can be occasional waves, primarily from the south due to the Southern Ocean, they are usually long and relatively small.
However, when these waves reach the beach or a shallow anchorage, they can build up unexpectedly. It’s important to be cautious of this phenomenon, especially when planning to go to the beach.
Most charters begin on the island of Mahé, where you'll find Eden Marina, the main marina near the capital. In the Seychelles, catamarans are the predominant choice, and single-hull yachts are quite rare. It's worth setting sail on the day of embarkation, starting by heading to the nearby national park of Saint-Anne.
