Sainte Anne Marine National Park
Sainte Anne Marine National Park
This marine national park consists of eight small islands located approximately 5 km off the coast of Victoria. Visitors go here to engage in island-hopping, snorkeling, and observing marine life in clear waters.
Getting There
The park is accessible only by boat from the city centre or nearby piers in Victoria. The boat trip typically takes between 15 to 30 minutes depending on the vessel and the specific island destination.
Duration of Visit
Most visitors allocate a half-day to a full day to explore the park. This allows time for boat transit, swimming, and walking across one or more of the islands.
When to Visit
The park is accessible year-round, though water conditions vary by season. Visiting during the morning hours often provides calmer seas. Like many popular coastal sites in the Seychelles, it can become crowded during peak tourist seasons and on weekends.
Nearby Attractions
Because the park is an archipelago, it is practical to combine a visit with other nearby islands. Depending on your boat itinerary, you can visit:
- Mahe (0.4km)
- Moyenne Island (0.5km)
- Long Island (1km)
- Cerf Island (1.4km)
- Round Island
