Explore St. Anne Marine National Park, the first designated marine park in the Indian Ocean. In this protected area, you are introduced to a variety of sea life through the windows of a semi-submersible vessel. The rest of the day is spent relaxing and enjoying the beach on Moyenne Island.

Large viewing ports offer close-up views of over 150 species of tropical fish, including scorpion, parrot and butterfly fish and red gorgonian coral fans. Transfer back to the catamaran for fish feeding; en route enjoy a scenic cruise as your guide points out the sights in the marine park. Depart for Moyenne Island enjoying scenic views of the inner islands of St. Anne, Round and Long.

A sumptuous Creole buffet lunch will be served onboard while local musicians provide entertainment. Your afternoon on Moyenne Island includes time to relax on the beach or swim in the warm turquoise waters.
