The best day excursions in Seychelles

 

Pirate Hunt

For the travellers, seeking  an adventure and a thrilling experience. We suggest becoming a pirate for a day and taking part in a scavenger hunt.

Seychelles became the hideout for pirates, back in the 18th century. When visiting the archipelago, you will come across names of legendary pirates Boudin, Avery and Kid. Who left their mark in history and hid their treasures, among the coast of Seychelles.  Some, of which haven’t been discovered till this very day.  Up until today, you can engage in a day excursion and get a sense of Jack Sparrows life. Hunt for the treasures, that are still left to be discovered. Pack your compass and get on board, for a memorable adventure across the Indian Ocean.
