The experience

A 100% all-inclusive day of relaxation aboard this superb sailing catamaran in the calm, peaceful waters of Grand-Cul-de-Sac-Marin. Fun, comfort and well-being for up to 20 passengers.

We’ll meet you at 8.30 am every morning for a dream day out on our sailing catamaran. Once the sails are hoisted, we’ll set off for a day of total relaxation on the peaceful, crystal-clear waters of Grand-Cul-de-Sac-Marin. Sailing is the ideal way to discover the wonders of the area amidst the silence of nature. Your skipper and his hostess will be delighted to introduce you to the art of sailing. Enjoy sunbathing at the bow of the boat on the nets, which are particularly comfortable to lie on. Whether in the sun or in the shade of the sails, you’ll love the feeling of the boat gliding across the water. Shaded benches at the stern of the boat invite you to have a natter near the bar, where you can help yourself to a snack: coffee, tea, mineral water or fruit juice. After an hour’s sail, you’ll have the pleasure of diving on a shipwreck, near which we’ll stop so you can admire the tropical fish up close. A majestic experience and thrilling sensations guaranteed. We’ll then set course for Îlet Caret for a swim and an aperitif on board. We’ll set sail once more towards the Îlet Fajou Nature Reserve for a meal featuring local flavours served on board: fish rillettes, smoked chicken with rice and plantains, served with ‘sauce chien’. For dessert, fresh seasonal fruit will be served with a coffee. Your choice of drinks at the table includes juice / water – ti-punch / planteur – rosé – coffee / tea. In this idyllic setting, you’ll have the pleasure of relaxing, snorkelling on the coral reef or even going for a paddleboard ride. Finally, your attentive crew, who will look after you throughout the day, will guide you safely back to port via the mangroves, amidst the tranquillity and gentle warmth of a Caribbean evening. In short, a memorable boat trip.

Journée exceptionnelle. Nos skypers Véronique et Thomas ont été très professionnels, en plus d’être sympa et sérieux. Les explications (sur la mangrove, l'histoire de l’îlet Caret, etc) sont fort utiles. Le déjeuner sur le bateau est très bon. L’ambiance est très bonne. La durée des pauses baignades est juste ce qu’il faut. Nous recommandons à 100%.
