During the cruise, the catamaran stops for a snorkelling break at La Preneuse or L’Harmonie, where you can swim amongst schools of tropical fish and vibrant corals. It’s a great way to experience the beauty of Mauritius’ marine life and underwater world.
After the snorkelling break, enjoy a delicious BBQ lunch served on board, featuring fish, chicken and a selection of fresh salads. If you are vegetarian, please inform us beforehand so that the necessary arrangements can be made.
Once you’ve refuelled, it’s time to head to Benitiers Island, where you’ll have ample leisure time to bask in the sun, soak in the sea breeze and fully unwind.
