About this experience

Diving & Snorkeling in Curieuse Island is a guided marine excursion based off Praslin in the Seychelles, centred on the island's protected coral reefs and granite formations. The activity operates from the island's designated mooring sites, with shallow lagoons for snorkelers and deeper drop-offs for certified divers. Curieuse's marine park status ensures high fish density and occasional turtle sightings near the reef edges.

What to expect

  • Guided boat transfer from Praslin to Curieuse Island, with a total excursion duration of 3 to 4 hours including surface intervals.
  • Snorkeling stops at two distinct sites: Anse José lagoon for calm, shallow water (1-3 metres) and the north-east reef for current-assisted drift over coral bommies.
  • Diving sessions reach depths of 12-18 metres, with visibility typically 15-25 metres, and include a certified dive master leading the group.
  • Use of mask, snorkel, fins, and buoyancy control device is included in the package; wetsuits are available for rent on board.
  • Sightings of hawksbill turtles, parrotfish, and octopus are common on the reef slopes, while eagle rays pass through the sandy channels.
  • Suitable for first-time snorkelers and certified divers (Open Water or equivalent); non-divers can stay on the boat or snorkel the lagoon during dive groups.
