Our travelers have been loving this BeBlue catamaran flotilla trip planned for Easter 2025 in the Seychelles. While we don't have a huge number of reviews yet, the feedback we've gotten really highlights what makes this sailing experience special. People who've gone with BeBlue mention how well everything flows - from the daily island stops and swimming breaks to the evening anchorages. The organization gets high marks, but it's not rigid - there's plenty of time to swim, snorkel and also relax on deck. It's worth noting that the format is pretty unique - you're part of a small fleet of catamarans sailing together, which creates this nice social atmosphere while still giving you privacy on your own boat. Our customers particularly like how they can be as social or independent as they want each day. The practicality of having organized moorings and a lead boat that knows all the best spots really adds value, especially in a place like the Seychelles where local knowledge matters. It's designed to work for both experienced sailors and also first-timers since you've got support nearby if needed. I can tell you more specific details about the itinerary, pricing and boat options if you're interested in learning more about this particular Easter 2025 departure.
Best places to start your Seychelles tour
Most of our sailors start their journey from Mahe Island, which handles about 27 departures, though some prefer launching from Praslin instead. Looking at our booking patterns, you'll want to lock in your dates roughly 6 months ahead - though lately we've seen tours filling up around 5.6 months out. Mahe makes perfect sense as the main starting point with its excellent marina setup and easy access to nearby islands. Our travelers often tell us how much they love hopping between islands from here, particularly mentioning La Digue with its unique granite rocks and pristine sandy beaches. Here's a local tip: take a day before your sail to explore Victoria's markets and soak up some authentic Creole culture - it adds such a rich dimension to your time on the water.
Seychelles tours for every type of group
Who are you traveling with?
Group
24 tours in SeychellesSetting sail from Mahé, groups discover the Seychelles through multi-day yacht tours that balance guided activities with independent exploration. The journeys weave through marine parks and nature reserves, where travelers join together to spot rare birds at Cousin Island and snorkel among 150 different fish species at St. Anne Marine Park. German visitors tend to choose the 10-day island-hopping routes, which feature guided walks through the UNESCO-listed Vallée de Mai and stops at Aride's bustling bird colony. For those seeking social connections, 7-day flotilla trips let you sail in a small fleet of catamarans, sharing beach barbecues and stories while maintaining your own space. Italian guests often gravitate toward tours highlighting La Digue's cycling paths, pristine beaches and also Anse Source d'Argent. The luxury yacht experiences include expert-led hikes to Thérèse Island's twin peaks, quiet afternoons watching giant tortoises on Curieuse Island and cultural visits to Victoria's markets and colonial buildings, giving groups a complete picture of these remarkable islands.
Private / Personalized
8 tours in SeychellesThe private family tours give you room to explore while we handle the logistics. We'll set you up in select resorts along Mahé's coastline, mixing guided trips with plenty of free time for beach days. Many of our families love the northern coast trek that connects with a catamaran cruise to Bay Ternay Marine Park - you can join the hike or spend the whole day on the water. The La Digue visits are always a hit, where you'll still see ox-carts rolling down lanes to L'Union Estate's old Creole house. For something different, try the semi-submersible trips - they're a great way to see marine life while staying dry, and they're usually followed by local Creole buffets cooked up by island chefs.

The week in Seychelles really shows what's possible when you mix island exploration with activities the whole family can enjoy. Our popular 7-day routes begin on Mahé, taking you through the clear waters to places like Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette. Mornings are for snorkeling near coral reefs full of tropical fish, while afternoons let you discover quiet spots by bike or on foot. Local experts guide you along Mahé's northern coast trails, pointing out unique plants and animals before you hop on a catamaran to Bay Ternay Marine Park. Our families tell us they love how the schedule balances guided activities with free time, especially at La Digue where traditional ox-carts still roll along the old paths.
Two weeks gives you the chance to really get to know each island's personality. You'll split your time between Mahé and Praslin, taking day trips to nearby islands. There's plenty of time to cycle past old Creole houses on La Digue, with stops at Anse Source d'Argent - which our customers often call the most photographed beach anywhere. The longer format means you can properly explore Vallée de Mai's dense valleys, looking for the unique Coco de Mer palm and wildlife that's evolved in this remote spot. German clients particularly mentioned how smoothly the local transfers worked, liking how we mixed guided activities and free time for exploring.
Demographics
Our island-hopping packages between Mahé, Praslin and La Digue take care of all the connections, which our German travelers say makes exploring so much easier. You'll get a good mix of guided activities and free time - cycle around La Digue one day, then spend time in the Vallée de Mai nature reserve the next. The beachfront accommodations put you right where you want to be, and you can easily walk to local spots. Many solo travelers like to spend their free time checking out Mahé's local markets, joining optional sunset cruises when the mood strikes, and finding quiet spots at beaches like Anse Source d'Argent.
The Seychelles offers couples a perfect blend of guided discovery and intimate moments away from the crowds. Morning activities flow naturally into peaceful afternoons, with guided nature walks along Mahé's shore paths leading to hidden beach retreats. Our 7-day packages take you from sunrise snorkeling at St. Anne Marine Park, where sea turtles glide past, to private sunset barbecues on quiet stretches of sand. Couples begin their days exploring Victoria's morning market, before sailing out to marine sanctuaries to spot playful dolphins in their natural habitat. The journey includes cycling past La Digue's traditional Creole houses, peaceful picnics at Anse Source d'Argent beach, and guided walks through the lush Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve. What makes these tours special is how they balance structured exploration with unscripted moments, giving couples time to discover their own secret coves and hidden beaches. Our Italian guests often tell us about magical evenings spent in secluded bays, where ancient granite formations create natural hideaways for watching the sun sink into the Indian Ocean.
The sailing flotillas leaving from Eden Island Marina are perfect for young travelers who want to discover the archipelago's hidden spots. You'll anchor in quiet bays, share BBQ dinners on deck and explore less-visited places like Curieuse Island's mangroves. The snorkeling at St. Anne Marine Park is incredible - you're swimming with sea turtles among 150 different fish species. Our Italian guests really liked how the days flowed; you might be cycling to Anse Source d'Argent one day, then cooling off in Île Cocos' clear waters the next. Most tours wrap up with time in Victoria, where you can check out the Hindu Temple and the city's own mini Big Ben.
Island-hopping through the Seychelles works perfectly for senior travelers, with seamless transfers connecting Mahé, Praslin and also La Digue. The accommodations sit right on the beachfront, and our German travelers often mention how well-orchestrated the inter-island connections are. They particularly value having both guided activities and free time to explore. Seniors can take gentle cycling routes past Creole houses on La Digue, discover the UNESCO-protected Vallée de Mai nature reserve, or wander through Victoria's local markets at their own speed. The experience includes scenic ferry rides between islands and quiet moments at beaches like Anse Source d'Argent, with cultural touches woven throughout - from spice garden visits to tours of colonial plantations. Transportation remains comfortable, with plenty of rest time built into each stop. While 7-day packages give you a solid introduction to the islands, the 9-14 day options let you settle in longer at each destination, moving at an unhurried pace that suits most senior travelers.
Our family tours revolve around the Avani Seychelles Barbarons Resort & Spa, which works really well as a base for daily explorations. Parents tell us their kids get a kick out of spotting unique wildlife on Mahé's nature trails - there's this tiny Sooglossids frog that's always a hit, plus they learn about local medicine from the pitcher plants. The catamaran trips are particularly good for families; we provide lightweight vests for the kids during snorkeling, and everyone loves watching the reef life from the semi-submersible viewing area. La Digue island tends to capture children's imagination with its ox-carts rolling past old Creole houses, and they're fascinated by the traditional coconut processing at L'Union Estate. You'll get plenty of resort time mixed with guided activities at places like Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette beaches.
