Charter a Luxury Yacht in the Seychelles

As an island country, the Seychelles are a perfect destination to charter a boat. With islands scattered in the Indian Ocean, the Seychelles offer stunning beaches and fabulous scenery. With the chance to watch birds and giant tortoises in their natural habitat, the Seychelles sells itself on its ecotourism – but it’s even more spectacular to visit the Seychelles underwater.

So, why not take the plunge while sailing around on your holiday? The Seychelles invite you to explore its underwater world, so you cannot refuse the chance to experience the amazing marine life and scenery of its underworld. A whole variety of sea life, including  sharks, stingrays and octopuses, can be found once you enter the clear blue waters from your yacht. It’s understandable that people want to charter a yacht with snorkel or scuba diving equipment – taking a dip on these waters is, without a doubt, unforgettable! Even if you aren’t an experienced diver, using a mask and snorkel will still give you an amazing view of this underwater world; everybody can experience the vibrant colours and activity of what goes on below sea level.

This Lagoon 400 catamaran is an ideal choice if you
want to try out the waters around the Seychelles – not only do you have snorkel gear at your disposition, there is also scuba diving equipment available on request. This catamaran provides easy access to the water, further encouraging you to take the plunge underwater, and when you get back on board there is plenty of space on deck to lie in the sun and dry off while you can reflect on what you might have just experienced!If you would like to receive more information with regards to booking your luxury charter yacht in the Seychelles, please enquire through our website, where one of our senior brokers will be happy to help you plan the experience of a lifetime.

Chartering in the Maldives on Luxury Crewed Super Yacht CAPRI

The Maldives is one of the worlds ultimate luxury destinations, perfect for honeymooners, sun worshippers and divers. Consisting of 26 atolls, the Maldives are a series of ancient coral reefs that provide some of the best beaches and waters on earth. The way of life is simple and peaceful, allowing guests to fully relax and enjoy the bright blue skies and yearly sunshine.

Facts and Figures:

0 Shark attacks since 1976

The best time to visit Malé is from December with an average temperature of 28 degrees and the lowest precipitation levels, making Christmas the ideal time to visit. Malé is the busiest of all the atolls and the business centre of the Maldives, yet is worth a visit to get a taste for the Maldivian way of life. The numerous bars, restaurants, shops and busy markets create the same buzz that you would find in any other capital city. We would recommend the Whale Submarine for those with children, as it provides a great place to look at the reef and everything that lives below. If you are interested in diving, there are a number of great dive schools and sites just a short boat trip away.

Why not incorporate one of the worlds leading luxury destinations with the one of the worlds greatest experiences – Yachting! One of our favourite Luxury Super Yachts that is available this Christmas is CAPRI, a 58.5m Lürssen with 6 magnificent staterooms, as well as some of the best outdoor entertaining spaces on the market. Her full beam master stateroom is furnished beautifully with a combination of dark wood and cream fixtures and fittings.  The decor in the saloon is much lighter, thanks to full length windows and this minimalistic approach continues on her decks, where guests will find a large jacuzzi with plenty of sunbathing areas. If you are interested in sport, CAPRI features a fully equipped gym, including a multi gym and plenty of water toys for the whole family. She is available in the Indian Ocean this winter, so don’t miss out on the opportunity to charter her in either the Maldives or the Seychelles.

Chartering a Luxury Yacht in the Seychelles, Indian Ocean

The Seychelles is widely known as one of the world’s most picturesque and delightful destinations. The islands are collectively an archipelago in the Indian Ocean, consisting of around 115 islands, most of which are only temporarily inhabited, if at all. The archipelago is made up of two groups of islands, simply named the Inner Islands, and the Outer Islands. The Inner Islands are home to the Seychelles two largest islands, Mahé, which extends 27 km (17 mi) North to South and 11 km (7 mi) East to West, and Praslin. Between these two islands, a shuttle service is offered both by air and on the water.

Spread across 174 square miles is a population of 84,000 (2009 estimate), which makes the Seychelles the 60th most densely populated country in the world. People like to travel to the Seychelles all year round due to it’s constant sun and humidity, but rainfall plays a large factor. The months of December, January and February (to an extent), bring the most rain, where June, July and August are the most dry.

The inner islands offer safe and easy moorings with easy sailing distances. Mahé itself has 44 miles of coastline and over 65 beaches and coves for those wanting to escape the crowds. Our recommendations for scenic locations would include Baie Ternay, Beau Vallon, Anse Soleil and Anse Royale. If secrecy is the name of the game for your charter, you’ll definitely want to head to Anse Jasmin, Anse Du Riz and Petit Anse. From the main island of Mahé, be sure to sail by the twin islands of Cousin and Cousine before continuing to Praslin, which has 18 miles of coastline and plenty of gorgeous hideaways of it’s own.

The outer islands are both less developed and more remote, but hold no less beauty. These islands are more recommended for the experienced sailors and for crew, as the journeys between these islands require an extra amount of effort. The nearest group of Outer Islands to the Inner Islands are the Amirantes, 130 miles southwest of Mahé. The Outer Islands are made up of 5 groups of low-lying coral islands and reefs, which explains it’s difficulty for many a sailor.

Chartering a yacht in the Seychelles is a sure way to relax and take time out of your every day life. We highly recommend the yacht CAPRI, a fantastic 58.5m Lurssen. She is extremely spacious and offers both 6 fantastic cabins for 12 guests, and ample deck space for those guests to enjoy the tranquility of the Seychelles on board a stunning yacht. She is fully fitted with all of the latest equipment, and has her own gym on board. Plenty of water-toys make for a fantastic charter, with wave runners, snorkelling equipment, wake boarding and much more on offer. She has an excellent crew who will be there to meet your every need, making sure that every moment on board is just as (if not more) memorable than the last. CAPRI is available this winter in the Indian Ocean for charter.

Luxury Sailboat and Catamaran Charter in the stunning Seychelles!

The Perfect Romantic Honeymoon destination.

The Seychelles are an archipelago nation, consisting of 155 islands (115 Islands and 40 Islets) located 1500km off Africa in the Indian Ocean. The Seychelles are a yachting paradise, with guaranteed weather, some of the worlds finest coral reefs and deserted beaches. Whether you would like to charter a luxury monohull or catamaran, sailing is definitely the way to fully appreciate the natural beauty of the archipelago.

We would recommend starting your charter from Mahé, the largest island and home to Victoria, the main port and capital. Mahé has a 44 mile scenic coastline, which includes many secluded spots, which are perfect for anchoring, as well as over 65 white sandy beaches and coves. It is a beautiful island to discover and will leave charterers feeling lost for words. We would highly recommend a luxury honeymoon charter, due to the pure romance that the Seychelles has to offer. One of our favourite Seychelles monohulls is DEMOISELLES, a CIM 88 Crewed Sailing Yachts. She is a great choice for sailing the Seychelles, with 4 cabins, making her perfect for family charters or entertaining friends, especially with her spacious deck.

DEMOISELLE, a luxury Monohull

If you are looking for a destination with the X Factor, Praslin may be the island for you. Charterers will find stylish boutique hotels, the finest restaurants offering the freshest fish, mountain peeks and crystal clear waters. Therefore, Praslin has something to offer for everyone, especially as it is the halfway house between the hustle and bustle of Mahé and the tranquility and sleepiness of La Digue. I would strongly recommend Praslin as a family and child friendly destination, as the opportunities to spend time in the water are endless. The snorkeling and scuba diving is second to none, as well as offering great bird and wildlife.

We would recommend a Luxury Catamaran Charter onboard a Lagoon 450, with great accommodation for up to 10 guests. She is a bareboat charter yacht, allowing the experienced sailor endless opportunities to explore the Seychelles.

The Perfect way to sail around the Seychelles on a Lagoon 450!

 

If you are looking for that picture postcard destination of pure white sandy beaches, mountainous backdrops and jade green waters, La Digue is the destination for you. Despite its beauty, it has surprisingly remained undeveloped and has remained humble to its heritage, despite the recent construction of a Casino. La Digue has a very laidback vibe to it, making her a great choice for a stopover on your yacht charter from Praslin and/or Mahé.
