16-passenger sailing catamaran – Petit-Canal / Grand Cul de Sac – Private hire

Come with us to explore the mangroves and coral reefs! Sail aboard a comfortable catamaran through calm waters as you discover the wonders of the Grand Cul-de-sac. Two crew members will accompany you to visit must-see sites: Macou Islet, paddleboarding in the mangroves and snorkelling on the coral reef. A permit issued by the National Park allows us to help you discover the best-preserved flora and fauna whilst respecting the environment.

A professional crew will guide you throughout the day in the various activities and raise your awareness of the surrounding ecosystem. Thanks to their specialised training, you’ll be able to swim right in the heart of the National Park, in turquoise waters surrounded by fish and corals in a myriad of colours. After an hour and a half of sailing, our first stop will be at the coral reef off the coast of Fajou Islet, where you can relax or go snorkelling. Enjoy swimming in the heart of the National Park, where you’ll have the chance to admire a multitude of fish and corals. We may even be honoured by a visit from rays, dolphins and turtles.

At 11.30 am, we’ll set off again towards Macou Islet – a one-hour sail across calm waters, during which you can enjoy sunbathing at the bow of the catamaran. An aperitif will be served whilst we’re sailing. Once we’ve reached the anchorage, you’ll sit down to enjoy a delicious Creole meal prepared with love. After the meal, the programme includes stand-up paddleboarding in the mangroves and a tour of the islet. A final stop is planned at Pointe Sable beach. Tucked away and protected by the ONF, you’ll have a stretch of white sand all to yourselves. At 4.00 pm, we’ll set off on the final leg of the journey, returning to the port of departure at 4.45 pm.
