Glass Bottom Boat Tour to St. Anne Marine Park with BBQ and Pickup

What you will expect

FULL DESCRIPTION
Step aboard our state-of-the-art glass-bottom boat at Eden Island Jetty on Mahe for an unforgettable journey into the heart of St. Anne Marine Park. With the boat’s crystal-clear glass floor, you'll have a front-row seat to the mesmerizing world beneath the surface. As we glide over the pristine waters, be prepared to witness schools of colorful fish, delicate coral reefs, and the stunning aquatic life that calls this protected marine park home.

Our adventure truly begins as we start the Glass Bottom Boat viewing, offering an up-close look at the abundant marine ecosystem. Watch in awe as vibrant fish swim gracefully past, and marvel at the intricate patterns of the coral gardens. But the experience doesn't stop there! Get ready for an exciting fish-feeding session, where you can see the marine creatures gather around the boat, creating a breathtaking spectacle of nature's harmony.

For those craving more excitement, we have snorkeling opportunities at handpicked spots within the park. Dive into the crystal-clear waters and swim alongside an array of tropical fish, vibrant corals, and hidden marine wonders. After snorkeling, we’ll take you to the beautiful Long Island Beach, where you can relax, sunbathe, and revel in the serene surroundings. But the adventure continues! We’ll visit Moyenne Island, a stunning haven known for its lush flora and fascinating fauna. Explore this untouched paradise on foot, surrounded by its natural beauty. To top off the day, savor a delicious Creole Lunch & BBQ right on the beach, offering authentic Seychellois flavors. With time for leisure, you can snorkel, beachcomb, or simply unwind before we sail back to Eden Island Jetty, filled with memories of a day well-spent in paradise.
