Itinerary
Day 1
Day 1
Port Louis
Port Louis, the cosmopolitan capital of Mauritius, is a captivating blend of French colonial architecture, UNESCO heritage sites, and one of the Indian Ocean's most vibrant food cultures — the Central Market's dholl puri and vindaye de poisson alone justify the port call. Beyond the city, the island offers Black River Gorges, the surreal seven-coloured earth of Chamarel, and the lagoons of Le Morne. The ideal cruising season runs from May through November, when the Southern Hemisphere winter delivers warm, dry days with comfortable temperatures and calm seas.

Aldabra Atoll
Aldabra is the world's largest raised coral atoll, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the remote Seychelles outer islands where over 100,000 giant tortoises roam freely and the last flightless bird in the Indian Ocean survives. Must-dos include observing the vast tortoise population, snorkelling pristine reefs, and watching manta rays in the tidal channels. Visit October through April for calmer seas; all visits require strict permits.
Day 6
Day 6
Assumption Island
Assumption Island is a raised coral island near the UNESCO-listed Aldabra Atoll in the outer Seychelles, offering pristine reef snorkeling, sea turtle nesting beaches, and proximity to the world's largest giant tortoise population on neighboring Aldabra. Must-dos include snorkeling the healthy coral reefs, observing nesting sea turtles (October-February), and learning about the island's ecological restoration program. Visit April through October for drier weather and calm seas.

Alphonse Islands
The Alphonse Islands are a pristine coral atoll in the Outer Seychelles, world-renowned for exceptional bonefishing, spectacular diving on coral walls, and turtle nesting beaches managed by a dedicated conservation foundation. Must-dos include snorkeling the house reef, wade fishing the crystal-clear flats, and watching sea turtles nest on moonlit beaches. October through May offers the calmest seas and best underwater visibility.
Day 10
Day 10
Seychelles
The Seychelles are an Indian Ocean archipelago of 115 islands renowned for granite-boulder beaches like Anse Source d'Argent, the prehistoric Vallee de Mai palm forest, and world-class diving around pristine outer atolls. Visitors should taste Creole seafood curries, snorkel crystal-clear waters, and seek out Aldabra's 100,000 giant tortoises. April-May and October-November offer the calmest seas and best diving conditions.
Day 11
Day 11
La Digue
La Digue is the smallest inhabited granitic island in the Seychelles, where ancient granite boulders frame the world-famous Anse Source d'Argent beach and bicycles remain the primary transport. Visitors cycle through tropical splendour, spot the endangered Seychelles paradise flycatcher, and feast on Creole cuisine of grilled snapper, octopus curry, and vanilla-scented ladob. AIDA, Azamara, Emerald Yacht Cruises, and Ponant call on Indian Ocean itineraries, with April-May and October-November offering the calmest seas and most reliable sunshine.
Day 12
Day 12
Victoria
Victoria is the world's smallest capital city, heart of the Seychelles archipelago on the granite island of Mahé, where endemic coco de mer palms, spectacular beaches framed by massive boulders, and a vibrant Creole market culture converge. Must-do experiences include browsing the Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market, hiking the Copolia Trail through endemic forests, and swimming at Anse Intendance beach. May through September offers the coolest, driest conditions for exploration.
