Description:
Aboard a catamaran, you will be fascinated by the spectacular scenario of the 5 islands of the north before landing on Gabriel Island. Here you will discover the pleasure of swimming in crystal clear waters, snorkel in an alive coral reef and then relax in the unspoilt white sand beach.
You will also have the chance to make a tour through the paths of the island, which is declared a nature reserve for its unique bird species in the world (including the "paille en queue" chosen as the logo of Air Mauritius). On board of a shuttle boat you will cross the lagoon to land on Flat Island known for its white beaches and his lighthouse.
A delicious BBQ lunch will be served on the island. On your way back, a dip in the natural aquarium of the majestic Coin de Mire is a must. While sailing, with a little luck you might see dolphins, whales and turtles.
