Half-Day Snorkeling Tour Around Big Sister, Coco & Félicité

What you will expect

FULL DESCRIPTION
This half-day snorkeling tour takes you from La Digue Island to three beautiful snorkeling spots around Big Sister, Coco, and Félicité islands. Lasting a few hours, it’s a relaxed way to explore the underwater world of the Seychelles. It’s best suited for visitors who enjoy snorkeling and want to experience several locations in one trip.

The tour begins at Big Sister Island, known for its quiet sandy beaches and clear, calm waters. You’ll snorkel over coral reefs and may see a variety of marine life, including tropical fish and sea turtles. On land, the island is also home to giant tortoises and striking granite formations, making it a peaceful and scenic first stop.

From there, you continue to Coco Island, located within the Île Cocos Marine National Park. This is one of the most popular snorkeling areas in the region, with excellent visibility and abundant marine life. You’ll have time to swim among colorful fish and coral, often described as a natural aquarium, and may again encounter sea turtles.

The final stop is Félicité Island, a small granitic island just east of La Digue. Here, you’ll explore a different reef environment and enjoy another unhurried snorkeling session in calm, turquoise waters. At each site, you’ll typically spend between 35 and 60 minutes in the water, giving you plenty of time to snorkel at an easy, enjoyable pace.

This tour is ideal for travelers staying on La Digue who want to see multiple snorkeling spots in one outing and spend meaningful time in the water without rushing. Visiting three distinct locations within the Île Cocos Marine National Park makes this a well-rounded introduction to the Seychelles’ underwater scenery.
