The VallÃÂ©e de Mai is a secluded valley on the island of Praslin, Seychelles, and is exactly where weÃ¢â¬â¢re heading today after getting in the boat at the port. Protected by UNESCO, the valley is known for its enchanting path that winds through the enormous palm leaves of the famous coco de mer. Spend the night anchoring in Baie Ste Anne, and enjoy the beauty of this natural wonder.

Today weÃ¢â¬â¢ll sail to La Digue, possibly the most beautiful island in Seychelles. Anchoring in Petite or Grande Anse, on La DigueÃ¢â¬â¢s southeast coast. The island is relatively untouched by tourists, which makes it a great place to explore by bike. There are winding trails under tall palm trees, and you can see houses with palm-thatched roofs, copra factories, fine white sand beaches and large polished rocks. If youÃ¢â¬â¢re lucky, you may even get to see a few giant tortoises roaming around Ã¢â¬â these gentle creatures are a true sight to behold.

Today weÃ¢â¬â¢ll sail around the beautiful isles of Marianne and FÃÂ©licitÃÂ©! Afterwards, weÃ¢â¬â¢ll anchor at the west coast of Grande Soeur where weÃ¢â¬â¢ll enjoy a great lunch. Experience the unforgettable snorkelling at Coco Island, just 7km north of La Digue, which is made of large rocks with strange regular stripes carved by the sea. The area is teeming with large arborescent corals, providing a home for thousands of tropical fish which swim in front of narrow breaks and dark caverns. Afterwards, weÃ¢â¬â¢ll go to Curieuse and anchor for the night in Laraie Bay, on the east coast.
