Exclusive Catamaran Cruise to Gabriel Island with Breakfast and Lunch

Have Day full of sun, drinks, delicious food and a lot of fun and relaxation!

Enjoy a unique Exclusive and Private Catamaran Cruise to Gabriel Island with its breathtaking beaches, lagoons and coral reefs.

The catamaran cruise starts at 09:00, departing from Grand Bay. After a short sail you will be served breakfast with coffee, tea, juice, fresh croissant / chocolate bread (pain au chocolat).

The crew members will make sure to make your time more enjoyable, and they will be happy to tell you about local tales, jokes, and to play local Mauritian music which will lift the spirits of all the people on board.

The sailing time is around 1.5 hours before reaching Gabriel Island. The island is most famous for its beautiful unspoiled beaches, with crystal clear water surrounding the entire island.

At around 12.30 you will enjoy a full delicious BBQ lunch buffet set on the beach or on the catamaran. Please note that the menu includes only fresh fish, fresh chicken and a selection of fresh salads. If you are a vegetarian, please advise us beforehand, so we can arrange the necessary additions to the lunch.

Sometimes during this trip you will be able to see whales as well as dolphins. If this happens, the crew will stop the boat, in order for you to observe these great animals from close in their natural environment.

Of course you can choose to stay on the beautiful white sand beaches, enjoy a sun bath or a nice walk at the Island. This amazing paradise island is the perfect setting for a relaxing day of sun worship.

This is no doubt a great place to enjoy a day of relaxation and fun on one of the picture-postcard beaches or enjoy swimming and snorkeling in the sea.

At around 15:00, you will leave Gabriel Island, heading back to Grand Bay. During the sail back you can enjoy light snacks, the bar services and the live music. Expected arrival time back to Grand Bay is 16:00

An added bonus for this trip is that you can enjoy a selection of drinks including alcoholic (beer, rum, cocktails…) and non-alcoholic beverages throughout the day.
