Program

Day 1

Eden Yacht Marina (Mahe isl.) – National Park St. Anna (3 NM – 30 minutes)

Arriving from the airport to the yacht marina, the yacht is accepted, the tour participants get acquainted with the crew and a joint trip for groceries to local supermarkets. After that, we check in on the yacht and the captain will conduct a detailed safety briefing.

We recommend arriving on the island a few days before the departure of the yacht in order to have time to admire all the beauty of the island of Mahe, Creole architecture and taste the local cuisine. This is the largest island in the archipelago, famous for its beautiful beaches, Seychelles Morne Park with incredible rainforests and mountain peaks.

After the yacht has been accepted and provisions are loaded, we begin our journey through St. Anne’s National Park, where you can swim in crystal clear waters and enjoy the rich marine life. In this protected area and stop for the first night.

Day 2

St. Anna – La Digue Marina (La Dig isl.) (28 Nm 3.5 hours

We continue our journey to the famous island of La Dig Marina. This place is the most popular picture on Pinterest with amazingly shaped rocks, among which Nide d’Aigle rises majestically. Elephant turtles live in the bays of the island – one of the largest turtles on the planet. On the island itself there are incredible coconut plantations. The sand here has a pink hue, which makes its beaches very beautiful. In a word, this is a paradise for relaxation and incredible photos.

For outdoor enthusiasts, you can rent bicycles and arrange a bike tour around the island.

Day 3

La Digue Marina (La Dig isl.) – Cocos isl. – Grande Soeur (5 NM – 1 hour)

After visiting the island of La Dig and enjoying the local beauty, we approach the Cocos Islands, which are famous for their ideal conditions for surfing, diving and luxurious coconut plantations. On the coconut islands you can see a beautiful coastal coral reef and meet tropical butterflies, sea turtles, rare species of birds and bats.

Our next stop is the highlight of the tour, the private island of Grande Soeur – fabulous, mesmerizing with the beauty of its beaches and green lawns. It cannot be described in words, you need to see it with your own eyes, so we will stay here for the night.

Day 4

Grande Soeur – St. Pierre – Praslin (12 NM – 2 hours)

We leave the island of Grande Soeur and continue our journey to the island of Praslin with a stop at St. Pierre is the perfect miniature deserted island in the middle of the ocean, considered one of the best snorkeling spots in the Seychelles. Our catamaran has the necessary snorkeling equipment on board, so you can explore the underwater world of this place if you wish.

Praslin Island is another amazing island in the Seychelles archipelago. Known for rich fauna. You can meet rare birds on the island, in particular the black parrot and the Seychellois bulbul. Fantastic coral reefs are located off the coast of the island, which invariably attracts divers from all over the world. Here are the best conditions for swimming and sea sports.

Day 5

Praslin – Curieuse Island – Anse Lazio (9 NM – 2 hours)

From Praslin Island we take a taxi to the Valle de Mai National Park.
A real jungle awaits you, it is here that the Coco de Mer sea nut / coconut grows – the symbol of the Seychelles, and the palm tree with its fruits is depicted on the coat of arms of the country. If you want to bring an unusual souvenir from the islands, then you can buy such a nut (the price is from 200 to 600 euros and depends on the shape and size), which has the appropriate certification.
Entrance to the park is paid – 350 Seychelles rupees (about 25 euros). Payment is possible in Seychelles Rupees, Euros, Dollars, cash or credit card.

Next we head to Curieuse Island. This is a small island of granite structure, famous for its rich marine life and mango groves. In its bays, you can meet a cone-fronted parrot fish, which often reaches 12 meters in size, as well as a whole camp of sea turtles. There are grills on the beaches of this island, if there are skilled fishermen on board of our catamaran, then the sea catch can be cooked right on the beach.

Another historical attraction of this island is the Doctor’s House – a villa built in the colonial style. In the 19th century, this island was a place of exile for lepers: the island still has the ruins of a leper colony where they were treated.

Day 6

Anse Lazio – Cousine island – Mahe/Beau Vallon Beach (26 NM – 4.5 hours)

We promised you a tropical paradise, so our next location is Anse Lazio the best beach in Praslin. Huge, spacious, with drooping palm trees, fine white sand and clear turquoise water – all the details are like from the Bounty advertisement.

The next island is no less amazing – Cousin Island, at first glance, as if uninhabited, and despite the infrastructure of hotel villas located there, nature remains completely virgin. The beauty of the local palette of colors is simply dizzy.

We will stop here for the night at anchor, under the starry sky.

Day 7

Beau Vallon Beach – National Park St. Anna ‐ Eden Yacht Marina (Mahe isl.) (12 NM – 2 hours)

We return to the National Park of St. Anne, which in general covers 6 small islands of the archipelago. This is a natural marine paradise, where you can get to know the inhabitants by diving directly into its depths.

Frequently asked questions

Can I go on a tour alone if I have no company?

Yes, of course. You have the opportunity to join a group tour and book a cabin for two people or one place in a double cabin based on gender. We have a lot of people who travel alone because it’s a great way to meet new cool people who are just as charged with adventure and unforgettable experiences.

Can I choose a cabin on the tour?

If you are one of the first to book, then you have the opportunity to book the desired cabin for yourself. The rest of the cabins are distributed among the participants according to the order of booking.

Does the tour price include yacht insurance?

All yachts rented by charter companies are insured.

What is a yacht deposit and why is it required?

The charter company needs to be sure that you will not damage the expensive yacht you have rented, and if you do, you will reimburse the cost of repairs. For this purpose, the team is charged a security deposit, which is refunded in full if the week has passed without any breakdowns. If you break any part of the yacht, equipment, or cause physical damage to the boat and are unable to fix it, the amount for repairs will be deducted from the deposit. The amount of the security deposit is always distributed equally among all team members on board.

What should I do if I get seasick and feel sick?

99% of people on the planet feel motion sickness on the 1st day of boarding because the vestibular system of a healthy person has to adapt to new conditions. Throughout the week, you will feel comfortable and adapted to the waves because we create routes where the waters are predictable and calm. However, in case of client’s anxiety, we always recommend that you take anti-seasickness pills (dramamine) with you, just in case. In addition to the pills, our captains have several effective life hacks that work perfectly every time, so put aside all your worries and get ready for the trip.

I don't know how to swim. Can I go on a yacht?

Yes, of course you can. Each yacht has life jackets for swimming, and the skipper will take you to and from the shore by boat whenever you need it.

Are there any age restrictions?

There are no age restrictions in our group yacht tours, the only exception is children under 5 years old. However, in individual tours, where you rent a yacht purely for yourself, children of any age can be present (our youngest guests on board were children aged 5 months).
There are groups where purely adult teams gather and separate family groups where parents with children from 5 years of age book seats.

Is there Wi-Fi on the yacht?

Almost all Sparks Life routes are not far from the shore, and the phone confidently catches the connection and the Internet almost all the time. Also, almost every side of the yacht is additionally equipped with a WiFi router. Check the conditions with us in advance.

Who will be in the team? How do I meet the Captain?

Sparks Life yacht tours are given to those who booked the fastest because the number of seats on board is always limited. These are always active and very interesting people, with different professions, prosthetics, and a common thirst for new adventures and emotions. The average age of the team is from 25 to 37 years. A week before the tour, we add all the participants to the team’s general chat, where they can get acquainted with the rest of the team and the captain.

How much time will we spend at sea and how much on land?

Usually, our routes are designed so that we have the opportunity to moor every evening in the marinas of different cities and islands. But if you want a more wild and secluded vacation, you can stop in deserted bays for the night and enjoy the sea and nature around you, without any fuss. Every day we go along a planned route, where we make stops for swimming, riding on hoes/kayaks, diving with flippers and masks in the open sea. We arrive at a new bay in the afternoon, in the late afternoon, and go sightseeing. Every day we have a new city and very often a sightseeing program is planned on the shore (with free time). It can be scooter/bike riding, a city walk, wine tasting, or a reserved table at a Michelin-starred restaurant.

What are the amenities on the yacht?

Our tours always feature yachts no older than 5 years. Each yacht has 3 or 4 double cabins, a shower, and a toilet. A full kitchen. Additional refrigerator for sparkling wine. There is a place on board for sunbathing and parties at sunset, which allows you to fully enjoy the sails and the sea. And if you’re lucky enough to get to the destinations where Sparks Life organizes a catamaran tour, you will feel what a real luxury vacation is.

What city do you depart from?

You can join us from any city. We will guide you to the place and time of gathering at the yacht marina. We can also help you find a convenient flight and organize a transfer from the airport to the yacht.
