Our Seychelles yacht charter options
We provide flexible options for our clients. The adventurous ones may choose the bareboat charter option and have the total freedom of the islands by sail on their own. On a skippered yacht charter, you will find comfort for easy trips without navigating as the professional skipper will take care of everything. Besides that, we offer additional onboard services such as a hostess or a private chef for providing good care, and creating a nice atmosphere onboard.
Exciting sailing itineraries
A Seychelles yacht charter introduces you to some of the most beautiful sailing routes in the Indian Ocean. Normally, the voyage begins at the Eden Island Marina which is a very modern and fully-equipped terminal, perfectly fit for both yacht rental and the issuance of a bareboat. The great nature trails on the island first take you to Praslin, a paradise for lovers of green nature, and then to La Digue, where the calm and the most beautiful beaches are inviting you.
By a large margin, Grande Anse is the first place that comes to mind when you think of clear turquoise waters and exposure to Coco Island for diving and quick trips.
What makes Seychelles a unique region
Seychelles is perhaps the only place on Earth where pristine nature and exclusive solitude coexist. It is an archipelago of islands scattered throughout the Indian Ocean.
The main landmass is a granite formation while the outlying islands are coral atolls, together they form a unique combination of landscapes which are not found anywhere else on the globe. Here, one can find endemic species, protected areas in the ocean, and waters so clear that visibility is perfect all year round. Warm trade winds, stable tropical weather, and a short distance between islands by sea make it perfect for yacht charter holiday.
Apart from the natural beauty, Seychelles also is very peaceful, and life is very slow-paced. One can find, without a doubt, deserted beaches, a very lively Creole culture, and sustainable tourism all in perfect harmony.

FAQ
What are the options to travel to the Seychelles from the US and Europe?
Since the direct flight to Seychelles from the US is simply not an ordinary case, US travelers frequently stop in such countries as the Middle East (most common Dubai, Doha) or Europe. The journey to sea lies from Mahé’s SEZ airport via a taxi, a transfer, a domestic flight, or by ferry, but typically, a yacht charter would originate from Mahé.
What is the optimal period for yachting in the Seychelles?
It depends on your preferred weather. The high season (April-May, October-November) offers gentle winds and calm seas. The trade winds from the southeast get stronger from June to September, which is perfect for surfers. December to March is hot and there can be an occasional tropical rain, the vegetation is beautiful and there are fewer people. You can go yachting at any time of the year.
Things to do during your Seychelles sailing vacation
Holidays in Seychelles yacht charter change the visit from just island hopping to becoming personalized days of diving, snorkeling, or visiting the charming local villages. One can choose a bareboat trip or let a skipper lead the way.
Skippered or bareboat yacht charter—which one is the best for you?
Choosing between a bareboat and a skippered yacht charter is essentially a matter of your sailing skills and your desires. The first literally gives you the keys of the boat provided that you are a certified and confident sailor. If you are a novice sailor, you can leave the responsibility to a skipper to make the whole process quite easy for you. It is wise to consider your desired level of involvement when you decide to make a booking. Both variants will allow you to have amazing experiences.
What are the boat sailing regulations in the Seychelles?
There is a safety measure for visitors as well as marine environment protection, so all vessels should be registered, insured, and well-equipped. A skipper must hold licenses that are recognized. Speed limits are in force around sensitive areas; it is prohibited to anchor in reef zones, so buoys are used. There are permits for marine reserves and fishing is regulated by strict rules.
