Detailed Itinerary

Day 01   Transfer to the Desroches Island
Arrive at Seychelles International Airport where a 40-minute helicopter transfer will take you to Desroches Island Resort located on tiny Desroches Island, a low-lying island forming part of the outer islands of the Seychelles Archipelago.

Days 02-04   Relax on the sandy Desroches beaches
Remote and exclusive, Desroches Island features 14km of white sandy beaches and amazing coral reefs, and is all yours to explore over the next three days. Visit the local fishing village, stroll on pristine beaches, and select what you want to do from a list of activities such as scuba diving, snorkelling and sea kayaking.

Desroches Island is known for the quality of its diving: numerous dive sites surround the island and are home to thousands of brightly coloured tropical fish.

Spend part of the day at the Escape Spa to revitalise the mind and body. The spa offers a variety of treatments from massages and manicures to pedicures and facials. Desroches Island Resort prides itself on serving delicious Creole cuisine, either in a relaxed setting on the beach, under the trees or in its signature restaurant, Le Ve Loutier.

Day 05   Helicopter hop to Mahe
A short helicopter ride will take you to Mahe Island where you will be transferred to Ephelia Resort, situated on a beautiful beach on the Seychelles’ biggest island. Settle in and begin your new Indian Ocean holiday chapter.

Days 06-07   Revitalise at the Ephelia Resort
Ephelia Resort overlooks a marine national park and is a multi-faceted resort – restaurants, pools, a spa, gym, kids club and tennis courts – in a beautiful location.

Sport-lovers will enjoy the non-motorised watersports on offer that include wind surfing, catamaran trips and kayaking, or they can enjoy a workout in the fully equipped gym and play a game of tennis or squash.

You can also enjoy scuba diving, yoga and fishing trips at this got-it-all resort. After all that exercise, what better to relax and revitalise body and mind at the Spa de Constance while the kids are entertained at the Kids Club, and you won’t have to worry about getting the same food every night either: Ephelia Resort has five restaurants, each offering a unique dining concept and culinary experience.

Day 08   Say goodbye to The Seychelles
A transfer will take you back to Seychelles International Airport in time for your outbound journey and the end of your Seychelles getaway.
