“The dives were easy and doable for beginners and the giant tortoises are easily the best encounter on the island. ”
Enjoy your Diving Cruise on the Sea Bird or Sea Star
The SY Sea Bird and SY Sea Star are sister ships offering fantastic dive and adventure cruises in Seychelles. Set sail on an adventure through the stunning Seychelles archipelago in the Indian Ocean aboard one of these beautiful traditional sailing vessels. The boats depart from Mahe for 7-night cruises around Praslin, La Digue, and the Sisters. Excellent snorkelling and diving opportunities await, as well as the chance to explore nature trails for a spot of bird-watching and local island visits to see mangroves, giant tortoises & historic ruins.
Both the S/Y Sea Bird and S/Y Sea Star liveaboard are custom-built sailing yachts with traditional hand-crafted furnishings. Cabins are air-conditioned with en-suite bathrooms, storage space, and a choice of either double or triple arrangements.

Overpriced for the quality of the boat
We loved the combo of diving and land excursions. By there were some downfalls too. The cabins are extremely outdated. The crew hungout in the guest space and played their music (often rap). The dive master was not that professional nor very competent. There were often 7-8 divers to 1 dive master. Some people couldn't dive because they didn't have enough rental equipment, even though the divers said they notified the company beforehand.

- There were 2 dives a day mixed with land excursions (we got to see a lot of the various Seychelles islands). Our captain did a great job changing the itinerary due to inclement weather.

I would do it again...
I enjoyed the snorkeling, so many fish and warm waters of course. I also enjoyed the island excursions, every island was (of course) different.

Amazing trip and the best way to get around the Seychelles.
Snorkeling everyday. Bicycling around La Digue and spending the day there. Curieuse Island. All the great people we met.

- The crew was very friendly and experienced. The food was outstanding and there was tonnes of food at each freshly cooked meal. Being able to easily hop to the different islands and not worrying about getting to each place as everything was included.

Great trip with an excellent variety of activities along the way!
Highlights - Diving: walkman, rays, reef sharks, octopus, lobster etc. My only complaint is that the last night was spent in the harbour and not according to programme at sea. The harbour was noisy, dirty etc..

Snorkelling our way around the Seychelles
The meals - even when the designated chef had to leave, the standard remained high. The beaches, the sights - and sites - and the guided tours.
