Best Snorkeling In Seychelles

Seychelles archipelago is home to some of the most colorful coral reefs in the world.

Due to pleasant water temperatures throughout the year, islands in Seychelles offer best snorkeling opportunities in the Indian Ocean. These calm waters shelter plenty of marine species where animal life reveals its true spectacle. Dry season is the best time to enjoy snorkeling in Seychelles for travelers.

Seychelles Snorkeling Tours

Nearly half of Seychelles’ territory is protected as marine reserves. With over 115 islands, Seychelles has enough changes of pace to keep travelers busy indefinitely. The sought-after beaches on the islands of La Digue, Mahe, and Praslin are at the top of any visitor's wish list. Snorkeling opportunities in Seychelles vary depending on which islands you visit.

Popular Spots for Snorkeling in Seychelles

White sandy beaches, bathed in warm aqua waters, on La Digue and Praslin islands have excellent snorkeling spots as well as glass bottom boats to encounter marine life. On Mahe Island, Anse Royale and Port Launay Marine Park are premier snorkeling spots in Seychelles. Bel Ombre, Anse Diri, and Anse Major are worth making a 2.5-km walk through the Morne Seychellois National Park to enjoy snorkeling and diving. The best place for snorkeling on Praslin Island is Coco Island from Cote d’Or beach. Those looking to enjoy snorkeling in less crowded waters should explore Baie Ternay Marine Reserve and St Pierre in Curieuse Marine Park.

Divers can explore the shallow lagoons of Anse Royale and barrier reefs which are a little further out to sea and granitic seascape all along the coasts. The waters of Anse Royale are ideal for swimming, snorkeling, fishing, and paddle boarding. The best spots for snorkeling are near the rocks at Fairyland, where there are plenty of brightly colored coral fish. At either end of Anse Major beach, the granite rocks and coral reefs offer ample opportunities for snorkeling. The reefs are well preserved and full of marine life.

Ideal Time for Snorkel in Seychelles

Anse Soleil, Sainte-Anne Marine Park, La Digue, Félicité, and Desroches Island are popular spots for snorkeling in Seychelles. In the warm waters surrounding these islands, snorkelers can see a large number of fish species, from whale sharks to manta rays. A large number of tour operators organize half-day tours to these islands and marine reserves. The best time to visit snorkeling spots in Seychelles is in the early morning or late afternoon. Snorkeling is possible in these waters all the year round, with average water temperatures of 28°C. The shoulder seasons, from March to May and September to November, are the best periods for snorkeling.

Kaushik's 9 days trip to Seychelles

Overall well arranged trip by Holiday Box and things were smooth. Berjaya hotels were good though Bernique guesthouse location and services were average and better options will be available. Creole travel services are excellent and good to book activities also through them. La Digue was best among all for scenic beauty. Very memorable experience and wonderful trip La Digue beaches, especially L Union estate beach with glass bottom kayaking was the best experience

Saumya's 5 days trip to Seychelles

We booked our trip to Seychelles via Holiday Box, one of the travel agents available on Travel Triangle. Can’t thank enough Kunal for planning our trip and their counterparts in Seychelles, Creole. We were very much impressed by Creole on time services and punctuality, their way of communicating the plans and their helpful staff on ground. Our hotels in Praslin and Mahé was Berjaya. We had the great experience there. Can’t appreciate more the customer experience given by Mr Bilal in Praslin. In Mahe, they had the best and friendliest staff, Mr Prem Singh, Rohan, Raj, Tikaram. They had the best in house Indian Restaurant, Indian Tandoor Cuisines and I can honestly say with the some of the best chefs, Abid and Nawaz and our server Anil Singh. Highly recommend Holiday Vox, Creole and Travel Triangle too book a relaxing and chilling vacation in India or anywhere outside Food, friendly staff and Hotels with their private beaches

Prasanth's 7 days trip to Seychelles

Meghna provided invaluable support before and during the trip. She managed our flight cancellations and rescheduling very well. She delivered what was promised. Her services did enhance the travel experience and this kind of support will be remembered. The onground team is also good and responsive. Hotel choices she proposed has good Indian veg food but are old. Ofcourse hotels are booked based on our budget and choice. All tips provided were very useful for planning a memorable trip

Tanay's 6 days trip to Seychelles

Good thing: Travel agent gave good pricing, very competitive which is commendable Things to improve: 1. A little follow up should be done from travel triangle so that itinerary doesn't change as per wish of travel agent after commitment. 2. No proper guidance after selling package. Made us think we were on our own for certain things. Good stay and smooth transfers

Ajit's 6 days trip to Seychelles

Best travel destination for honeymoon couples. Seychelles is well known for white-sand beaches, tropical climate, and biodiversity. A must visit places - La Digue, Victoria, Anse Lazio, Beau Vallon, Tea Factory & Saint-Anne Marine National Park. Kunal along with Creole Seychelles service partner were very helpful and provided a really good arrangement for our accomodation. Staff at the Oasis hotel in Praslin & Berjaya in Mahe were very polite and available during the entire stay. We visited Praslin (3N), La Digue (1D) & Mahe (3N), both the locations were at the walking distance from the beach. Food & Water bottles at the hotel were expensive which made us explore reasonable restaurants/food outlets/Supermarkets outside our hotel. Overall the entire experience of the trip was amazing. Walks on the white sands of La Digue & Praslin. Beau Vallon beach view & Pizza from Sun Coco in Mahe.

Ashishmall's 7 days trip to Seychelles

I recently planned my holiday to Seychelles with Meghna from HolidaysBox, and it was an excellent experience. Since I wasn’t very familiar with Seychelles, Meghna guided me exceptionally well. She planned all my activities and hotels perfectly, and even customized the trip according to my preferences. Her behavior was really commendable—she is polite, attentive, and listens carefully to customer requirements. Thanks to Meghna's planning, my Seychelles trip turned out to be amazing. I’m grateful for her support and would highly recommend Meghna and HolidaysBox for a well-organized and hassle-free travel experience. Thank you!

Jayesh's 7 days trip to Seychelles

Our trip planned by Meghana from Holiday box was amazing. Meghana was very attentive to every detail of our trip. From scheduling to hotels to transfers, she arranged for everything properly. Her local knowledge is very good. We had an issue due to the airline rescheduling our onward journey. Meghana helped us immensely by arranging for the date changes for every part of the trip. This was truly exceptional service. The resorts chosen for us were also very good. In fact, we loved Constance Ephelia so much that we spent a lot of our time inside the resort only!
