- Ste Anne Marine National Park - Located off the northeast coast of Mahé Island in Seychelles, Sainte Anne Marine National Park consists of six islands. The park is surrounded by stunning turquoise waters, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling.
- Sainte Anne Island - This island is characterized by a hill that rises to 246 meters and is enveloped in dense tropical vegetation. It was the site of the first French settlement in 1770, a brave endeavor given the crocodile-infested swamps that once surrounded it.
- Cerf Island - As the second largest island in the Marine Park, Cerf Island is nestled in the heart of Sainte Anne Marine Park. It is encircled by a captivating underwater world and a revitalizing coral reef.
- Moyenne Island - Moyenne Island, a favored destination, is just under half a kilometer long. Within its lush tropical garden are remnants of early settlers’ homes, pirates’ graves, a quaint thatched chapel, and giant tortoises that roam freely.
- Round Island - Neighboring Moyenne, Round Island boasts breathtaking beaches and coves perfect for swimming. It is home to the exclusive Enchanted Island Resort.
- Long Island - Once a prison, Long Island is situated in the heart of Ste. Anne Marine Park, near Round and Moyenne Islands. This coconut palm-covered treasure rises to 90 meters and features exquisite powder-soft beaches and stunning turquoise waters.

Creole Travel Services made our honeymoon so special! - My husband and I were first introduced to Creole Travel Services and the wonderful Marie-Yvonne during our honeymoon stay at Mango House LXR earlier this year. She is truly a gem. Not only is she exceptional at what she does, but she has a way of making every experience sound unmissable. By the time she finished walking us through the options, we were convinced we needed to see everything Seychelles had to offer.
We ultimately chose four excursions:
-South of Mahé Tour (highly recommend asking for Jude as your guide!)
-St. Anne National Marine Park & Moyenne Island
-Sunset on the Rocks
-La Digue Island Day Trip
Our favorites by far were Sunset on the Rocks and La Digue Island.
For Sunset on the Rocks, we knew we couldn’t pass up a breathtaking view to celebrate our honeymoon. Before reaching the rocks, you tour a massive nature conservatory complete with a greenhouse full of fresh greens, roaming peacocks, and giant tortoises over 100 years old. It poured rain the entire way up, but as soon as we reached the top, the sky opened up and revealed the most spectacular sunset we’ve ever seen. Paired with hors d’oeuvres and champagne, it truly felt like a scene from a movie.
La Digue was another highlight. The only downside is the roughly 2 hour ferry ride from Mahé and let me warn you, LOTS OF PEOPLE GET SEASICK. Neither of us usually does, but after that very bumpy ride, we made sure to grab Dramamine for the return trip. Outside of that, the day was perfect. La Digue is a small island, so everyone bikes everywhere. After arriving, you’re taken straight to pick up your bikes, and from there you can explore the coastline, beaches, and iconic granite rock formations. They are enormous up close! The island is full of shops and food spots too. We had lunch at Natural Bar, and it ended up being one of our favorite meals outside of the hotel.
For budgeting, expect to spend about $150–$300 per excursion. Since we were visiting for almost two weeks, we felt the cost was well worth it. Creole Travel Services made everything seamless, from pickup to dropoff, and we always felt safe and well taken care of. We usually like to explore on our own when we travel, but because we weren’t familiar with Seychelles, we felt it was best to follow the locals’ suggestions.
If you’re comfortable having some help planning your adventures, I’d absolutely recommend booking with Creole Travel Services and especially with Marie-Yvonne to help curate an unforgettable trip.

A great outing - Great outing. The surface area of the catamaran makes you feel comfortable even if it is complete. A good Creole buffet and a guide at the top (thank you Jeannette!!)
We recommend without hesitation

Beautiful day on a catamaran - Good organization of booking, via transfer and the trip itself. Great crew, beautiful catamaran, impressive snorkel stops, delicious food
And on the occasion of our anniversary, our guide arranged for a bottle of sparkling wine to be taken off the ship as a surprise

Five wonderful tours - We travelled to the Seychelles as a couple and of course wanted to get to know the country and people. In total we took part in five different tours - Praslin and La Digue, South of Mahe, Surf an turf, Starfish and Full day Mahe. All tours we enjoyed wonderfully. They were top organized from start to finish, everyone was always nice and friendly. We have seen many things that would not have been possible or would have been much more cumbersome if we had an individual exploration. Many thanks to the entire team! It was a pleasure for us:)

Much too expansive for what you gwt - Small boat, smaller plexiglas bottom, the spots we visted were devastated, few small fishes, overcrowded sandbank and a very questionable bbq lunch in a bush at the beach. The visit to the poorly held tortoises did not make the experience more interesting. The price was just ridicolous.
