Itinerary
Day 1
Full-day speedboat island-hopping tour with hotel pickup and drop-off. Total duration ~7 hours from pickup to drop-off.
Hotel pickup and transfer to Trou d'Eau Douce jetty
Private pick up from your hotel (island-wide service). Transfer by air-conditioned vehicle to the speedboat boarding point at Trou d'Eau Douce.
Tips from local experts:
- Be ready in the hotel lobby 5–10 minutes before your scheduled pickup time; drivers may have a short pickup window.
- Bring a small day bag with swimwear, sunscreen, and any seasickness remedies; larger luggage should stay at your hotel.
- Keep photo ID and any medical notes (allergies, medications) easily accessible for the driver.
Boarding & safety briefing at Trou d'Eau Douce jetty
Meet at the jetty, board the speed boat and receive a short safety briefing and instructions for the day.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear non-slip shoes while boarding; flip-flops can be slippery on wet decks.
- Store seasickness tablets in an easy-to-reach pocket and take them before departure if you are prone to motion sickness.
- Supervise children during boarding; crew will assist but brief parental attention keeps boarding smooth.
Boat ride and visit to Grand River South East Waterfall (viewing)
Short speedboat transfer along the east coast to view the Grand River South East Waterfall from the boat and, where operationally allowed, approach the shoreline for photos.
Tips from local experts:
- Bring a lightweight waterproof jacket in case of spray when approaching the waterfall by boat.
- Keep cameras or phones in a waterproof case or zip-lock bag for close-up photos from the boat.
- Children should remain seated while near the boat edge; the crew will advise when it is safe to move for photos.
Island visits, snorkeling and beach time at Île aux Cerfs and nearby islets; BBQ lunch on the beach
Spend the main portion of the day visiting several nearby islets with stops for swimming, snorkelling with provided equipment, and relaxing on white-sand beaches. A beach BBQ lunch (grilled chicken, fish, salads) and unlimited drinks are served ashore.
Tips from local experts:
- Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a sun hat; shade on small islets is limited and UV is strong mid-morning to early afternoon.
- Children should wear life vests while snorkeling; confirm sizes with the crew and ensure a snug fit.
- If anyone has dietary restrictions, inform the crew at boarding so they can advise on the available BBQ options.
Return to Trou d'Eau Douce jetty and hotel drop-offs
Speedboat returns to the jetty at Trou d'Eau Douce. Private vehicle transfer from the jetty back to hotels across the island for drop-off.
Tips from local experts:
- Have small change ready for incidental tips, but keep valuables secured in the hotel before boarding.
- Expect the drop-off order to follow an efficient route; passengers from the same area will be grouped where possible.
- If you need a restroom immediately on return, ask the driver to stop at a public facility near Trou d'Eau Douce before longer transfers.
