Seychelles yacht charter

La crème de la crème of the Indian Ocean, Seychelles boasts a wealth of natural richness and stunning biodiversity. It is no wonder that UNESCO has selected two Seychelles sites as part of the restricted World Heritage club. Seychelles's breath-taking coral reef and crystal-clear water, have slowly but surely paved the way for yacht charters.

Why charter a yacht in Seychelles?

Commonly known as "the jewel of the Indian Ocean," Seychelles proudly enjoys 115 islets that have kept their uniqueness and timeless beauty. The archipelago owns 41 Inner islands, referred to as the oldest granite islands globally and 74 Outer islands or coral islands. Chartering a yacht through the islands is an exclusive experience and allows you to fully admire Seychelles' natural luxury and the archipelago's secrets. With the crew's expertise, you will safely sail to the remotely located Outer Islands, which are generally harder to reach than the Inner Islands but is a marvelous journey to appreciate the majestic lush vegetation of each island and visit the uncharted coral reefs. The islands of Mahé and Praslin, for instance, are one of the prime destinations, whose large marinas provide the safest anchorage. In the comfort of your yacht, you will be able to hop from one island to another, from sophisticated restaurants to well-kept historical sites.

What are yacht charter prices in Seychelles?

Seychelles offers an extensive range of chartered yachts; however, catamarans are the most popular. They provide an easy way to navigate through the islands and explore the picturesque coral reefs. The multi-hulled watercraft and their remarkable living space are unmissable premium cruising that could go up to $5,000 a week if you wish to venture on your own. For a full experience that lets you focus on the most critical moments of your séjour, rates may vary from $11,000 with a skipper and $24,000 a week with a captain and a chef. You can hire a Monohull for approximately $2,000 to $7,800 per week and a motor yacht from $37,000.

When is the yachting season in Seychelles?

Perfectly nestled in a calm zone in the Indian Ocean, Seychelles protects itself from the unforgiving seasonal change, making every season an unreasonable excuse not to plan your yacht charter journey in Seychelles. The island has welcoming and pleasant weather, which can be enjoyed by international wanderers all year long. Prolonged rains are a rare occurrence even during the rainy season of January and February. October and March offer calmer sea, and the period between May and September brings drier and livelier yacht charter season in Seychelles. Yacht connoisseurs may enjoy a warm itinerary, which never drops below 24 degrees Celsius, and all the islands except the deep south islands suffer during the Indian Ocean cyclone season.

Seychelles yacht charter for a day

Chartering a yacht for a day is possible in Seychelles. The best destination to truly live Seychelles is by exploring the largest island of Mahé, known as the wonder of granite, and staying in the region of the Inner Islands. Mahé is 44 long miles of coastlines and numerous dazzling bays and beaches, notably the Bay of Ternay, Port Launay, or Anse Soleil. Wandering through the tropical forests and meeting with giant yet timid tortoises are amongst the unique discoveries that you can enjoy on the island. Onboard your yacht, you could pursue a journey to 20 diving and snorkeling sites in the privileged marine park of Mahé island. Saint Anne Marine National Park is the ultimate destination where you could charter a yacht and discover 150 types of fishes. You also have the opportunity to go beyond the lagoons and swim deep with inoffensive sharks.

Seychelles yacht charter overnight

By chartering a yacht overnight in Seychelles, you will have the option to go from Mahé and visit the nearby islands, particularly the second largest island, Praslin, which hosts the Vallée de Mai, one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites. You could anchor in its 18-mile coastline. You will come across the famous palm trees, whose nuts, 'coco de mer', are well-known. Amongst the most beautiful beaches in the world, Praslin's beaches, Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette, are the places to be. If time allows, you could head to La Digue, an island with many coves such as Reunion and Patate and the world's most Instagrammable and prized silver-sand beach. Your yacht will safely anchor in la Digue for the night.

Seychelles yacht charter for a week

When chartering a yacht for a week in Seychelles - Curieuse is a destination you can sail to. It is an island known for its red soil, Aldabra tortoises and tamaka trees, and Aride, Seychelles' largest natural reserve. While a shorter charter vacation will bring you to the wonders of the Inner Islands, chartering a yacht for a week will allow you to have the special occasion of visiting the Outer Islands. The latter are unchartered territories whose inhabitants remain to date, solely blue lagoons, palm trees, and vibrant marine reef life. The Amirants are the nearest group of Outer Islands from Mahé.

In the Outer Islands, you may enjoy a fishing activity around Poivre, dive around the spectacular view offered by Des Roches and Assumption Island or observe the wildlife and birdlife in Aldabra Atoll. For adventurers at heart, the Aldabra islands are the most remote part of Seychelles and are closer to the coast of Madagascar than the island of Mahé. Selected as the second UNESCO World Heritage Site and the largest raised coral atoll, The Aldabra Atoll is a rare pearl visited by few in the world and an opportunity to gaze at its idyllic scenery and unparalleled biodiversity.

Wedding yacht charter in Seychelles

Deserted beaches and secluded bays have made Seychelles one of the most idyllic wedding choices. Since the islands are near each other, wedding ceremonies and celebrations may enjoy a pleasant and different experience. For instance, the celebration party may take place at the Bay of Ternay, and as the sun sets, the guests may cruise along Mahé Island for the evening celebration. There are many marine parks and romantic hideaways to choose from for this special day.

Corporate yacht charter in Seychelles

Seychelles' yacht charter is notorious for its wedding organization and corporate organization of board meetings, celebrations, and team building. There are many activities, from adventures to chic and sophisticated adventures to choose. The experience on the yacht will suit the needs of the events. Some corporate tailored experience includes attending the regatta, afternoon teas, and water-based activities for team-building.

Guide to the Seychelles

The original Garden of Eden

Blessed by Mother Nature, the raw, perfect beauty of the Seychelles is virtually unparalleled. Its exquisite ribbons of white sands and coconut palms that fringe the sapphire seas, backed by forested wilderness, create the ultimate paradise destination where pure relaxation beckons you to the shores.

Encompassing two UNESCO world heritage sites, the 115 islands of the Seychelles are scattered across the Indian Ocean like precious jewels. Lying some 1,000 miles off the coast of Africa , the main island group consists of three islands; Mahé, Praslin and La Digue, each boasting breath-taking landscapes of green-swathed mountains, tranquil beaches and cascading waterfalls. Nature abounds throughout the idyllic shores, from unique exotic flora and fauna to nesting giant tortoises. Beneath the waterline is a kaleidoscope of colour with thriving coral reefs teeming with marine life, world-renowned snorkelling opportunities and dive sites to explore.

Boasting many natural harbours and a year-round season, it is easy to see why the Seychelles has become a popular yacht charter destination alternative to the more crowded Caribbean . The two seasons run from May to October (south-easterly monsoon) and November to April (north-westerly monsoon) and the relatively short distances between the islands are perfect for hopping from one heavenly oasis to the next throughout your charter itinerary.

Home to the Seychelles capital, Victoria, which also happens to be the smallest capital in the world, Mahé is the largest island in the archipelago. Despite its size, Victoria is a vibrant hub of cosmopolitan energy amongst colourful markets selling exotic spices and fresh fruit with a selection of museums, art galleries and boutiques as well as a colourful port. The local cuisine is a fusion of cultures, blending the best of Africa, Asia and European influences, and is a delight to sample in an al fresco dinner underneath a spectacular starlit sky.

The most famous of the islands is the seductive and stylish Praslin, which plays host to a range of gourmet restaurants serving freshly caught fish with views of the tangled velvet jungle and curving hills that drop down into crystalline waters. Peppered with distinctive fluted granite rocks and red-hued boulders, Praslin is also home to the Seychelles’ most celebrated beach Anse Lazio. For more secluded beaches, take an eight minute helicopter flight over to the west coast of La Digue which is said to be the most photographed stretch of coastline in the world. Its swaying palm trees and jade-green waters epitomise treasure-island paradise, with dazzling views of the tiny surrounding islands; the perfect spot for a beach picnic.

Why sail in the Seychelles?

Check the boats on offer

yachting seychelles

Seychelles - home to beautiful bays and national parks, both on land and in the sea. The Republic of Seychelles lies east of Africa, roughly 1,000 km north of Madagascar and is divided into two parts. The inner islands, which most visitors head for, and the outer islands, which are inhabited by about only 2% of the population. Mahé is the main island of the Republic of Seychelles. Its capital city, Victoria, is one of the smallest capital cities in the world. 

What is special about the Seychelles? 

  • Plenty of beautiful bays where you can swim, snorkel, and discover the beauty of the coral reefs. 
  • National parks where you can take day trips and see endangered species of giant tortoise. 
  • Predominantly medium winds and small waves make the Seychelles an ideal region for sailing.  
  • The constant warm climate makes Seychelles a perfect place to holiday all year round.

Yachting areas in the Seychelles

yachting seychelles

The most inhabited areas and the most frequented are around the islands of Mahé, Praslin and La Digue. It’s the perfect place for holidaying and sailing. Most tourists plan to holiday in this exotic area for 14 days, so they can discover the most beautiful and interesting places and still return to their starting point. But you can also take advantage of the option of one-way trips in the Seychelles. 

Weather and climate

The Seychelles lie outside the area where tropical storms usually occur. The hurricanes that race through the Pacific and then on through the Indian Ocean pass by without disturbing the islands. So, when planning a holiday in the Seychelles, you don’t have to worry about being caught in the tropical storm season. The only things that change there are the monsoons and air currents.   

From around the end of November to the end of April, a northwesterly monsoon prevails, while for the rest of the year, a southeasterly one blows. On the islands, it is possible to adapt due to the large number of leeward and windward bays. However one downside is the small number of good berths during periods of stronger wind. 

From May to September, stronger, southeasterly trade winds blow at speeds of 9-19 kn (knots) or 3-5 on the Beaufort scale (BFT). Rain is minimal, air temperature is between 27-29°C, and water temperature is 26-27°C. April and October are calm periods, usually without much wind, and ideal for scuba-diving and motorboating. Trade winds blow from November to March with a force of 2-4 BFT (7-12 kn), air temperature is between 28-30°C, and water temperature is between 27-28°C. 

Mahé

The main island of the Seychelles archipelago is home to the newly built Eden Marina and international airport. The marina is within easy reach of the airport, just 5 km away and a few minutes by taxi. Anse Royale, where you can moor on the eastern side of Mahé, is a cliff-lined lagoon with sandy beaches and coconut palms. On the southwestern side is a bay called Baie Lazare (Anse Lazare).

Also worth mentioning is a small national park on the northwest side of Mahé, Port Launay. If the southeast monsoon is blowing during summer, it is possible to anchor in some places on the northern side of Mahé. Unfortunately, during the northwest monsoon it isn’t.

yachting seychelles

20 NM to the northeast is one of two enchanting islands - Praslin. Dream Yacht Charters' main base is here in Baie Sainte Anne. This means you can takeover or handover your boat there or at the Eden Marina on Mahé. You can have your bed linen changed, replenish your supplies, or fill up your water tank at the marina, or you might opt to take a trip around the island. You can comfortably make excursions all over the island using cheap local transport (you can take an unlimited journey by bus for just 5 rupees) and visit places such as the famous Vallée de Mai National Park. Unfortunately, the entire southern shore is inhospitable to sailors and there are no spots to comfortably and safely anchor. The exception perhaps being Grand Anse Bay, but this is not recommended in the local yachting guide.

yachting seychelles

Anse Lazio sandy beach on the island of Praslin.

One of the most beautiful beaches in the world is on the island of Praslin. This sandy beach with granite stones enchants all who set eyes on it. However, in contrast to other beaches, Anse Lazio is not home to any protected coral reefs. Another attraction of Praslin Island is the Vallée de Mai, a UNESCO listed, mature protected forest with incredible palm trees.

Near Praslin you’ll discover one of the most beautiful national parks in the Seychelles, Curieuse. There you’ll find Aldabra giant tortoises, beautiful primeval forests and sandy beaches - it is simply an ideal place for a walk. The Aldabra giant tortoises are one of the two attractions for which the Seychelles is most famous for. This species of tortoise can only be found only on the Galapagos Islands, and here in the Seychelles, so there aren’t many opportunities to see these creatures in their natural habitat.

yachting seychelles

Aldabrachelys gigantea—a giant turtle.

The second most famous attraction is the huge and ornate granite stones here, not found in such abstract form anywhere else in the world. Their imposing beauty will leave you in awe of their grandeur. The Curieuse area is suitable for anchoring and is an excellent starting point for excursions to nearby islands such as Aride or Cousin. Curieuse is a quiet and enjoyable location that you’ll want to return to again. The anchor holds well here.

yachting seychelles

Aride, Cousin, and Sainte Anne

Aride Island is another nature reserve, lying just 6 NM northwest of Praslin, and is suitable for day trips or you can visit the Cousin Island Nature Reserve. There is also Ste Anne Marine National Park, which is rather expensive, but you can stay anchored here on the first day when you leave the harbour. It is located in front of the Eden Marina, not far from the capital city of Victoria.

Perhaps the most beautiful island in the Seychelles is La Digue. The island is located just 2 NM east of Praslin. The anchorage at La Digue is truly breathtaking. On the eastern side of the island there are three beautiful bays that are romantic, uninhabited, and provide a perfect spot to moor. The most beautiful bay is Coco Bay, the northernmost of the three. It is 200-300 m long and only accessible from the sea, so there’s virtually no chance of running into tourist here. This area has not been mapped, nor it is in map plotters or even navigation systems. You can only get here by pilot and when pulling into the bay, you will have to carefully watch the seafloor beneath you.

Moorings yacht sailing in Seychelles

Seychelles Catamaran Charter

Seychelles is an isolated archipelagic island paradise with a population of merely 84,000. A melting pot of French, British, Middle Eastern and African culture, the Republic of Seychelles lies 1,000 miles off the east coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. A Seychelles catamaran charter itinerary focuses on the main Inner Islands where you will find easy, short passages.

Revered for its magnificent coastlines, lush tropical forests, brilliant coral reefs, luxurious resorts and giant sea tortoises, there is something irresistible about Seychelles that is best experienced aboard your own private yacht that is loaded with plenty of water toys. Snorkel, swim and paddleboard near pristine white-sand beaches and kayak through natural preserves where you can spot rare birds like the bulbul, black parrot and fruit pigeon. After soaking up a bit of nature, head on land to indulge in fine dining or high-end shopping. 

Select The Moorings charter option that matches your personal travel style: bareboat or skippered sailing or all-inclusive Crewed service at sea, and set your sights on the Seychelles. If you’re not certain which shore-exploring adventure to choose, rely on the knowledge of our expert Vacation Planners, who can customize your Seychelles catamaran charter itinerary,  provision your yacht  in advance and assist with all  travel arrangements  on the days you depart and return.

View luxury yachts chartering in the Seychelles here

The Seychelles is often referred as the "Jewel of the Indian Ocean " and what better way to experience this jewel than on a luxury Seychelles yacht charter vacation? After all, it is an island nation with some of the most wonderful coastline environment in the world, so a boat is surely the best way to experience it. The Seychelles archipelago consists of hundreds of islands and inlets scattered over an area of 400,000 square kilometers, as situated northeast of the island of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean.

There are numerous reasons why luxury holidaymakers are drawn to these rare and enchanting shores, but the beauty of the beaches and the ocean life is high among them. Similarly, luxury superyachts also come to visit or are based here year round and so there are typically several to choose from. The idyllic white sandy beaches, calm waters, sparkling lagoons and brilliant coral reefs, are some of the reasons why this is one of the most unique yacht charter destinations in the world. The second, is the incredible and ancient wildlife reserves, which hold rare species which are found nowhere else on earth. Discover giant tortoise and huge flocks of sea birds such as the lack parrots or the flightless white-throat rail bird. Beneath the water the wildlife is just as, if not more impressive than the wildlife on land.

Luxury Catamaran Charter in the Seychelles

Hundreds of species of brilliantly colored fish and coral are on display at Desroches Drop - a site renowned for the best diving in the Seychelles. While the protective waters of the lagoon are perfect for snorkeling off your charter boat, there are over 20 dive and snorkel sites in the marine parks around Mahe, one being St Anne Marine National Park which protects over 150 types of fish. For those who'd like to experience the thrill of diving with the giants of the deep, the waters beyond the lagoons hold a variety of larger fish and sharks.

Eden Island Marina is a beautiful Seychelles yacht charter destination nestled in the Indian Ocean

If you'd feel more comfortable with these type of fish on your plate, as apposed to you on theirs, the deeper waters are fantastic for game fishing. The main island of the Seychelles, Mahe is stunning with 70 beaches of different character, backed with dramatic rock formations.

With so many beaches and bays, an impressive anchorage for your charter boat, is never far away. The temperature in the Seychelles is fairly consistent year round. The climate is tropical and humid, accompanied by a pleasant breeze. Temperatures sit at an average of mid to high twenty's. Although tropical rains fall more frequently in January and February, they rarely affect more than a small area at once. The weather can still be perfect, merely miles away, around the island.

Seychelles beaches are the best.

The types of yacht charter available in the Seychelles includes motor, sailing, diveboat charter, skippered, crewed yachts, power boat, sailboat, and more and more luxury yacht charters round the world trips. The constant breezes make light work for a sailing yacht. The shallow coral reefs and endless beaches are perfectly suited to a catamaran. Or a motor yacht such as luxury motor yacht Seastream , based in the Seychelles year round that can power you to the next secluded bay, fishing or diving spot in no time. Whichever your preferred boat type, a yacht charter in the Seychelles, will be unforgettable. The stunning landscape and the valuable wildlife species make the Seychelles an interesting and diverse location for a yacht charter holiday.

In addition to benefiting from passive income through my boat's rentals, I can also enjoy personal sailing periods to explore the stunning waters of the Seychelles. The Lagoon 380 is an ideal choice for these waters, offering comfort, stability, and ample space. Sailoé Seychelles ensured that my boat was well-maintained and ready to welcome renters, providing me with peace of mind.

The highlight of our cruise in the Seychelles was undoubtedly the encounter with the manta rays. Their impressive wingspan and elegance in the water were simply breathtaking. We were also fortunate to see sea turtles basking on the white sand beaches. The multicolored corals and schools of tropical fish added a touch of beauty to every dive we did. I highly recommend this experience to all nature and marine life enthusiasts.

Thank you for this catamaran purchase. We are delighted with the boat prepared by SAILOE.

We offer boat rental options with a skipper or professional captain . This is ideal if you have no sailing experience or simply want to relax during your trip.

The skipper is responsible for onboard safety and has a deep understanding of local conditions, which can be crucial in sometimes challenging waters.

You can discuss the itinerary you'd like to follow with the skipper, based on your interests and available time. Local skippers typically have excellent knowledge of the area and can recommend places to visit.

Renting a catamaran with a skipper offers many benefits, including the opportunity to fully enjoy your journey without worrying about navigation, the route, or safety .

A day of catamaran cruising costs €1300 (skipper and fuel included).

You can add a Seychellois chef and food for €50 per person.

The itinerary is flexible around Mahé and is defined based on your expectations and conditions: St Anne, Anse Royage, Beau Vallon, Bay Ternay, Anse Major.

You can find more information on this page.

As a French national, you do not need to hold a visa for a short stay in Seychelles.

Before departure, all tourists must obtain a travel authorization through this platform:  https://seychelles.govtas.com/  

We recommend choosing soft bags for your boat cruise in the Seychelles, as suitcases can be bulky on board.

Cybercafés are available in Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue. You also have the option to purchase a local SIM card for internet access or use certain local Wi-Fi hotspots, although the latter may have data restrictions.

The Seychelles recognize foreign navigation licenses when translated into English. However, it is strongly recommended to have the ICC (International Certificate of Competence) to avoid any risk of invalidity.

The national languages of the Seychelles are Seychellois Creole, English, and French.

Security deposit waiver insurance , also known as franchise insurance, is an option offered by SAILOÉ.

This insurance aims to reduce the financial liability of the renter in case of damages or unforeseen expenses associated with the rental object.

Subscribing to insurance: When you rent a SAILOÉ boat, security deposit waiver insurance is usually offered to you as an additional option: 6% of the boat rental amount.

Reduction of the security deposit: If you subscribe to security deposit waiver insurance, SAILOÉ will reduce the amount of the security deposit you need to pay at the time of rental. For example, if the initial security deposit is 8,000 euros, by subscribing to the insurance, you could reduce this deposit to 1,500 euros.

Depending on your situation and needs, security deposit waiver insurance can provide additional peace of mind during your rental by reducing your financial liability in case of unforeseen issues .

Included: Standard boat inventory and equipment, bed linens, shower towels, flippers, mask and snorkel, dinghy with its engine, fishing rod, and charcoal barbecue.

When you book one of our catamaran cruises, we ensure that your experience is as enjoyable as possible. To do this, we have included various equipment and amenities in your package so you can fully enjoy your journey in the Seychelles.

The standard boat inventory includes everything you need for a comfortable cruise, from kitchen utensils to safety equipment. You don't have to worry about bringing these basic items because we provide them for you.

For your comfort, we also provide bed linens and shower towels so you don't have to worry about packing your cabin with linen.

If you feel like exploring the crystal-clear waters of the Seychelles, we have also included flippers, a mask, and a snorkel . This way, you can dive in and discover the fascinating marine life of the region.

For your transportation between the boat and the beaches or nearby islands, our dinghy with its own engine is at your disposal. It will allow you to easily access the shore and explore the wonders that the Seychelles have to offer.

Finally, for those who enjoy fishing and outdoor grilling, we have included a fishing rod and a charcoal barbecue . You can catch your own dinner and prepare it on board for a unique culinary experience.

Not included: Cancellation insurance, island landing and mooring taxes, consumables (diesel, gasoline, water).

We want to ensure that your trip goes smoothly, which is why we would like to inform you of what is not included in your package.

Cancellation insurance is not included, but we strongly encourage you to purchase travel insurance that meets your needs and provides peace of mind in case of unexpected events.

Please note that island landing and mooring taxes are not included in the cruise price . These fees are typically collected by local authorities and may vary depending on the islands you visit.

As for consumables such as diesel, gasoline, and water, these costs are not included in the cruise rate and will be at your expense.

Payment methods: We accept payments by bank transfer as well as by credit card. We recommend that credit cardholders choose this payment method, as it may include additional travel insurance for your trip. This will allow you to benefit from the protection offered by your credit card in case of cancellation or unforeseen issues during your cruise.

We hope this information helps you better understand what is included in your Seychelles cruise package and what is not. If you have any further questions or specific needs, please don't hesitate to contact us, and we will be delighted to assist you in making your trip unforgettable.

The choice of the size of the catamaran for your cruise in the Seychelles depends on several factors, including the number of people in your group, your comfort preferences, your sailing experience, and your budget. Here are some factors to consider to help you decide on the size of the catamaran that best suits your trip:

Group size: The first important consideration is the number of people who will be participating in the cruise. Catamarans are available in different sizes, from small models that can accommodate a few passengers to larger catamarans suitable for larger groups. Make sure to choose a catamaran that provides enough space for all members of your group to be comfortable.

Comfort : If you are looking for a high level of comfort with spacious cabins, private bathrooms, and generous living spaces, you will need to opt for a larger catamaran. Larger catamarans tend to offer more luxury and amenities.

Sailing experience: If you have sailing experience and may want to take control of the catamaran yourself, a smaller catamaran may be more suitable. However, if you prefer to leave the sailing to a professional crew, a larger catamaran with a crew may be the ideal choice.

Budget: The cost of renting a catamaran typically increases with its size. Therefore, it is important to consider your budget when choosing the size of the catamaran. Don't forget to factor in other costs associated with the cruise, such as food, fuel, and port fees.

Itinerary and destinations: Consider the itinerary you plan to follow in the Seychelles. Some sailing areas may be more suitable for smaller catamarans due to depth restrictions or limited access to moorings. Ensure that the catamaran you choose is suitable for the places you want to explore.

In the end, the choice of the catamaran's size will depend on your specific needs and personal preferences.

It is entirely possible to rent a catamaran with a chef in the Seychelles. SAILOÉ offers this option to provide our clients with an even more comfortable and enjoyable sailing experience.

When you rent a catamaran with a chef, you typically enjoy the following benefits:

Customized meals: The onboard chef takes care of preparing all the meals, meaning you don't have to worry about cooking. You can discuss your dietary preferences, special diets, and dishes you'd like to enjoy during your voyage.

Local and international cuisine: The chef can introduce you to Seychellois cuisine as well as international dishes, depending on your tastes.

Time savings: You save precious time that you would have otherwise spent cooking or searching for restaurants on the islands you visit.

Maximum relaxation: You can relax and fully enjoy your journey without worrying about meal preparation or cleaning up afterward.

Personalized service: The chef can tailor meals to accommodate food allergies, specific dietary preferences, and the needs of your group.

Before booking a catamaran with a chef, make sure to discuss your dietary requirements, preferences, and associated costs with us. This option can enhance your cruising experience, allowing you to focus on relaxation and exploring the beautiful islands of the Seychelles

Opt for a soft and moderately sized bag: Soft bags are more suitable for saving space in the catamaran cabin, as they can fold and fit more easily than a hard suitcase. Additionally, a small bag can be easily carried with you during your stops on the different islands.

Essential clothing for a tropical cruise:

Light and comfortable clothing: Choose lightweight and breathable materials such as cotton or linen for t-shirts, shorts, skirts, and dresses. Bring multiple outfits to avoid having to wash your clothes every day.

Two swimsuits : Alternating between two swimsuits allows one to dry while you wear the other. Opt for light colors that attract less heat.

A sarong: Practical and versatile, a sarong can be worn as a skirt, a dress, or used to protect yourself from the sun and wind.

An outfit for evenings: While most catamaran cruises in the Seychelles are casual, pack a slightly dressier outfit just in case you dine at a restaurant on land.

Underwear and socks: Bring enough underwear for the duration of your stay, as well as a pair of lightweight socks for cooler nights.

Clothing and accessories to protect against the sun and rain:

The weather in the Seychelles is generally mild, but occasional tropical showers can occur. So, remember to pack:

A wide-brimmed hat: A wide-brimmed hat is ideal for sun protection during the day.

Sunglasses: Choose polarized lenses for better UV protection and to reduce glare from the water.

Sunscreen: Opt for sunscreen suitable for your skin type and water-resistant.

A lightweight rain jacket: To protect yourself from rain showers, choose a rain jacket that can easily be folded into your bag.

Appropriate footwear for a catamaran cruise and stops in the Seychelles:

Sandals: Opt for comfortable and well-fitting sandals, perfect for walking on the deck and on sandy beaches.

Water shoes: Essential for accessing rocky or coral areas, water shoes provide better traction while protecting your feet.

A pair of sneakers: If you plan to hike or bike during your stops, always pack a pair of lightweight and comfortable sneakers.

Useful accessories and equipment for the cruise:

An underwater camera: Being able to capture the wonders of the Indian Ocean underwater is invaluable. With a waterproof camera, you can immortalize these moments without worrying about damaging your equipment.

A tourist guidebook: Bringing a comprehensive guidebook on the Seychelles will help you discover the must-see attractions and hidden gems of the islands.

An electrical adapter: Check if your devices are compatible with the Seychelles' electrical outlets and remember to bring a universal adapter just in case.

A headlamp or a small flashlight: Quite useful when night falls on the docks or during evening activities ashore, this small source of light can come in handy.

Seychelles offer excellent opportunities for sea fishing, whether it's sport fishing or deep-sea fishing. You can catch a variety of fish, including tuna, marlin, dorado, and other prized species.

Some areas are off-limits for fishing to preserve the Seychellois marine environment. This is the case, in particular, in the vicinity of Port Launay Bay, Coco Island, and Curieuse Island.

Some of our boats are equipped to go to the Amirantes.

To reach the Amirantes, crews must obtain permission from the I.D.C, pay a landing fee, and must embark a locally accredited skipper.

Navigating around Praslin offers the opportunity to visit the famous Anse Lazio , renowned for its pristine beaches and waters ideal for paddleboarding. The islet of Saint-Pierre provides exceptional snorkeling opportunities, allowing visitors to explore colorful coral reefs and encounter a variety of tropical fish. The island of Curieuse is also worth discovering. It is famous for hosting a significant population of Aldabra giant tortoises, making it an iconic location for the observation and preservation of these endangered species.

The Aldabra giant tortoises on Curieuse Island are distinguished by their impressive size and curious behavior. Travelers can observe these majestic creatures moving freely in a preserved natural environment.

When renting a boat in Mahé, explore the beautiful beaches of Anse Royale and Anse Intendance, where you can enjoy fine sand and crystal-clear waters, as well as observe sea turtles that frequent the area.

Port Launay Beach is a true gem with its fine sand and calm, shallow waters. It's the perfect spot to relax, swim, and bask in the tropical sun

The Yachting Experience

Yachting provides the unique intersection of adventure, privacy and luxury. Yachts come in a variety of different sizes, from small boats that can be handled by a single person to large vessels that require a crew. They are usually equipped with full amenities and facilities, including cabins, kitchens, and bathrooms, making them perfect for comfortable long-distance cruising.

yachting seychelles

Sailing vs Motor Yachts

There are 2 main types of yacht you can consider. A Sailing Yacht and a motor yacht. Motor yachts typically offer greater speeds. Sailing yachts, although more romantic, heel more easily. Motor yachts are usually a bit more expensive to charter and there are significant fuel costs to budget for.

Yachting is not just an activity for adults; children can also enjoy sailing. Many yacht clubs offer youth sailing programs, where children can learn how to sail and participate in regattas. Sailing can be an excellent way for children to learn teamwork, develop their problem-solving skills, and gain confidence. Yachting is also a competitive sport. Regattas and sailing races are held worldwide, with participants from different countries competing against each other. The America's Cup is the most prestigious yacht race in the world, held every four years, and is considered the pinnacle of sailing.

Reasons to rent a Yacht

  • Your next event/celebration can be extra special when you book a yacht rental. Celebrate in luxury with the most breathtaking views, 5 star service and absolute privacy. One of the most appealing aspects of a yacht holiday is the privacy it offers. You can escape the crowds and enjoy the peace and tranquility of being on the water. You can anchor in secluded bays, swim in crystal-clear waters, and watch the sunset in total privacy.
  • Personalised service is guaranteed when you book a yacht. The crew on a luxury yacht are there to ensure your every need is met. They are highly trained professionals who are dedicated to providing personalized service to make your holiday unforgettable. They can organize activities such as diving, snorkeling, kayaking, and jet skiing, or arrange for private tours and excursions.
  • One of the many benefits of a yacht holiday is the flexibility it offers. You can customize your itinerary to suit your preferences, whether you want to explore secluded coves and beaches, visit bustling cities or indulge in water sports activities. You have the freedom to choose how you spend your days and nights.
  • Adventure is the most important element of any sailing experience. Explore new places, participate in your favorite water based activities such as snorkeling, fishing, or diving, and make memories with your loved ones that will never be forgotten.

Sailing Holidays in Seychelles...at a glance

Best time to sail in seychelles & weather conditions, where to start your seychelles boat charter from & how to get there, seychelles boating holiday tips, recommended 7-day sailing itinerary from mahe , recommended 7-day sailing itinerary from praslin, prices: how much does it cost to charter a yacht in seychelles, sailing destinations nearby.

Often referred to as the original Garden of Eden , with soft, sandy beaches, fantastic coral reefs and soaring mountains, a Yacht charter in Seychelles is the perfect setting for a tropical holiday.

The Seychelles are part of the Indian Ocean . The phrase ‘breathtaking paradise’ is barely sufficient to describe the porcelain white beaches, shimmering aquamarine waters and idyllic way of life associated with the Indian Ocean.

Mahe, Praslin and La Digue constitute the 3 main islands, however, this region offers more than 100 islands, islets and bays to explore. 

The Seychelles are an ideal sailing destination year-round and temperatures are warm between 25C and 30C. We recommend visiting this region during April-May or October-November , as this is when the water has great visibility - perfect for water activities - and you will also find ideal south-easterly winds averaging 10 to 20 knots . 

These time-periods are also dry, and not too warm or humid.

May to September is considered the dry season with south-easterly trade winds. From October and until March, you can expect north-westerly trade winds of 8 to 12 knots.

You can start your sailing yacht or catamaran charter from Mahe or Praslin (although Praslin is the most famous starting point). Sometimes, one-way charters are offered between the two islands.

This sailing region is well served by the Seychelles International Airport (SEZ), located in Mahe. 

If you are starting your holiday from Praslin, you can easily get a connecting flight with Air Seychelles (15 minutes), or take the ferry “ Catcoco ” which arrives about 200m away from the Praslin base (1-hour crossing between Mahe & Praslin). 

The ferry company provides a shuttle service between Mahe airport and the ferry quay in Mahe.

Yacht4Less can organise airport transfers from Praslin airport to Praslin base and from Mahe airport to Mahe base (both ways) upon request.

The official currency in Seychelles is the Roupie Seychelloise (SCR). ATMs are easily found, however, they distribute SCRs. All main Credit Cards (VISA, MASTERCARD etc.) are accepted in most places.

Spearfishing equipment and wearing camouflage are not allowed, and nudism is only permitted in specific beaches.

Don't worry if you are a first time sailor or you planned a family sailing holiday . This sailing destination is ideal for all levels of sailors and vacation types.

About Seychelles

Why is Seychelles a good sailing destination?

The Seychelles archipelago, with its constellation of islands shimmering in the heart of the Indian Ocean, is more than just a picturesque postcard; it’s a siren’s call to sailors and marine enthusiasts. But why has Seychelles garnered such acclaim as a premium sailing destination? Let Yachting.Rent guide you through the allure of this maritime haven.

Firstly, Seychelles boasts a unique blend of calm, protected waters and open oceanic expanses. This combination promises varied experiences for sailors of all calibers. From navigating the gentle embrace of sheltered bays to conquering more challenging ocean currents, Seychelles caters to both the novice and the experienced.

The natural diversity of the islands further elevates its sailing charm. Every island, be it the granitic wonders of Praslin and La Digue or the coral gems of the outer atolls, reveals a distinct character. As sailors weave between these islands, they’re privy to a dynamic tableau of landscapes – from towering granite boulders to powdery beaches and vibrant coral reefs teeming with marine life.

Cultural richness adds another layer to the Seychelles sailing experience. The islands, with their melting pot of African, European, and Asian influences, offer sailors a chance to immerse themselves in Creole traditions, tantalizing cuisines, and the infectious rhythms of local music and dance. Each port of call presents an opportunity to dive deep into the soul of the islands.

Yet, what truly sets Seychelles apart is its commitment to environmental sustainability. Recognized globally for its conservation efforts, sailing through Seychelles often feels like traversing a pristine, untouched Eden. The dedication to preserving its natural wonders ensures that every anchorage, every dive, and every exploration leaves sailors with a sense of wonder.

In conclusion, to sail Seychelles is to embrace an unparalleled blend of natural beauty, cultural wealth, and marine adventures.

What Choose

Sailing boat or Catamaran, what to sail in Seychelles

Seychelles, a captivating symphony of azure waters, coral atolls, and granitic islands, is a sailor’s dream. Yet, every dreamer stands at a crossroads – to embrace the slender elegance of a sailing boat or revel in the expansive luxury of a catamaran. At Yachting.Rent, we’re here to illuminate your path, ensuring your Seychellois adventure is perfectly attuned to your desires.

The islands’ dynamic maritime landscape, with its sheltered bays, open ocean stretches, and a plethora of hidden gems, demands a vessel that resonates with your vision of exploration. Let’s delve into the essence of each choice:

Sailing Boat: Immerse yourself in the timeless art of sailing with a vessel that melds seamlessly with the wind and waves. The sailing boat’s slender profile and intimate ambiance make it perfect for couples or small groups seeking a close connection with the elements. Its agility shines in navigating Seychelles’ varied waterscapes, from narrow channels to wide oceanic expanses. If your heart beats to the rhythm of sails billowing in the wind and you yearn for authentic nautical experiences, the sailing boat awaits your command.

Catamaran: Majestic and spacious, the catamaran emerges as the preferred choice for those seeking comfort and panoramic vistas. Its dual-hulled design ensures stability, ideal for families or those new to the joys of sailing. The catamaran’s generous deck space invites sunbathing, alfresco dining, and spontaneous diving excursions into the clear waters. For groups looking to bask in luxury while island-hopping, the catamaran offers unmatched opulence and ease.

Both vessels promise unique perspectives of Seychelles’ enchanting allure. With Yachting.Rent, each choice is backed by impeccable service, expertly maintained vessels, and a commitment to crafting memories that echo with the magic of Seychelles.

In essence, whether you lean towards the classical allure of a sailing boat or the modern charm of a catamaran, Yachting.Rent ensures your Seychelles sojourn is nothing short of extraordinary. Set your compass, choose your vessel, and let Seychelles’ islands unfurl their wonders before you.

Explorer yacht influencer interview: ray dalio.

  • Share to Linkedin

Ray Dalio diving in the Seychelles in 2024

I’m not an economist. Or a hedge fund manager. Or even good at math. But I am curious enough to have read The Changing World Order by Ray Dalio who, by the way, also happens to be the founder of the world's largest hedge fund firm, Bridgewater Associates that currently has over $120 billion in assets under management. And since being particularly curious about ocean exploration is also a wonderful part of my job writing about yachts, I also know that Mark and Ray Dalio founded a serious ocean exploration initiative— OceanX a few years back. So… I could not imagine a better subject for my latest “Influencer Interview” series than Ray Dalio. As you’ll see, he’s as knowledgeable and passionate about the world’s oceans as he is about other important subjects.

OceanXplorer is the ultimate ocean research vessel.

BS: The mission of OceanX is “to explore the ocean and bring it back to the world.” And OceanX is doing that by “combing science, technology and media to explore and raise awareness for the oceans and create a community engaged with protecting them.” So, the question is: where does your motivation and passion for the OceanX mission come from?

RD: I'm so excited about the ocean and ocean exploration because the ocean is the most important asset the world has—it has the greatest effect on our wellbeing. And it's also the most exciting place to be. The ocean is 72 percent of the world's surface, and the highest point on the surface is equal to the ocean's deepest depth. So, this means that it's more than twice the size of all continents combined.

I grew up near the ocean on Long Island and some of my earliest memories are of the crabs, shells, all of those coastal experiences. And then watching Jacques Cousteau amazed me, and then I learned to dive, and I was lucky enough to have experiences interacting with ocean explorers. It’s been a lifelong journey.

NEW YORK, NY - JUNE 04: OceanX Media Founder and Creative Director Mark Dalio (L) and OceanX ... [+] Founder Ray Dalio speak onstage during the Launch Of OceanX in New York City. (Photo by Ilya S. Savenok/Getty Images for OceanX)

What I'm hoping to do with OceanX is explore it and then bring it back to people to see it the way Jacques Cousteau did for me. OceanX is an endeavor that I've been doing in one form or another for about 11 years. We’ve done museum exhibitions. We have an ocean exploration that we bring scientists on and is the best platform for both discovery and for conveying discovery in media.

OceanX is doing this with marine biologists from all over the world and sharing their discoveries on regular and social media. OceanX has more than 10 million social media followers, who love following the missions and learning about the ocean. Later this year, we’re excited to release OceanXplorers , a groundbreaking new television series on National Geographic/Disney produced by BBC Studios Natural History Unit and OceanX in association with Earthship Productions for National Geographic. It follows a team of scientific and storytelling pioneers exploring the deepest and most inaccessible depths of our world’s oceans aboard OceanXplorer."

One of OceanX's Triton submarines exploring a reef in Raja Ampat

BS: Can you tell me about the underwater missions you're most proud of or excited by?

RD: We were the first to capture footage of the Giant Squid in its natural setting with The Discovery Channel in 2012, bringing amazing footage of this incredible creature to the world. We have filmed expeditions for BBC’s Blue Planet II and Sir David Attenborough’s award-winning series Great Barrier Reef."

BS: Since some of OceanX’s greatest contributions to the field of marine science include conducting the first-ever submersible dives to the Antarctic seafloor and conducting the most comprehensive survey of North America’s only coral barrier reef system it’s obvious that submarine-operation is integral to OceanX’s mission. Can you also talk about your choice of Triton subs? Apart from any connection to the company you might have, can you tell me why Triton subs are the best choice for the missions you have planned?

OceanXplorer is the ultimate ocean research vessel with serious sub-ops capability.

RD: We use Triton subs for ocean exploration because they are the most reliable and they can be perfectly customized for our scientific and media needs.

And OceanX continues to make a positive difference in the world. Earlier this year, OceanX convened global climate leaders together at COP28 in Dubai to advance ocean health. Experts aboard OceanXplorer this year have also surveyed underwater seamounts and ridges in the Azores to provide data to support the Azorean government’s goal of designating 30% of the region’s waters as Marine Protected Areas. And during a recent mission in the Seychelles (where these photos of Dalio diving were shot) OceanX also created the first-ever comprehensive map of the Aldabra Atoll, the world's second-largest coral atoll.

Stay tuned for more information.
