Take a small boat from the beach in Grand Bay to board the catamaran. We then sail to Île Plate. Flat Island, known as Île Plate in French, is located near Round Island, at the extreme north of Mauritius, about 11 kilometers north of Cap Malheureux fishermen village.
Enjoy the scenery as the boat glides up the coast of northwest Mauritius, and keep your camera handy for photo ops of Cap Malheureux, Pereybere, and Grand Bay.
When arriving to Flat Island you will have free time to stay on the beach to relax and tan, to walk along the island trails, to swim inside the lagoon.
Barbecue lunch, that is, fish & chicken, is served with bread, salad, and dessert. Sip the provided beer, wine, local rum, water, or coke along with your meal. Juice and soft drinks are also available. Spend some time after lunch exploring the island or lounging on the beach. See the endemic magnificent bird called Paille en Queue.
Sail back, and if the weather and sea conditions are good, there may be time to snorkel at sea. Please note that while we pass as close as possible to the third island, Coin de Mire, we do not set foot on it. However around the island, you will have time to do snorkelling on your own, at your own desired pace.
This is a superb cruise to the islands. A special day. Come and enjoy!!!
