Which Moyenne Island Boat Trip to Book

For most visitors the Moyenne Island boat trip to book is the one whose price includes the island: Creole Travel Services’ Mahé: Saint-Anne Marine Park and Moyenne Island Cruise, from $163 per adult (checked November 2026), with a snorkel stop, a guided tour of Moyenne among the giant tortoises, a Creole lunch and the landing fees on Moyenne and in the marine park. It has 606 reviews. The other three days below cost less or start earlier, and each has a catch worth knowing.

The calendar above is the cruise. It ran on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays on the dates checked in November 2026.

Four ways to land on Moyenne

All prices in US dollars on the booking calendars, checked November 2026 (dates on the price page).

The cruise: one price, the island included

Creole Travel Services’ catamaran is the day to pick if Moyenne is why you are going. The island is in the title, the guided tour is part of the day, and the landing fees on Moyenne and in the marine park are in the price. Of its 350 most recent reviews (March 2025 to November 2026), 268 give five stars. The repeated complaints: too long on the island after lunch (5 October and 4 November 2026), weak snorkel stops close to the harbour (10 October 2026), and a group that can reach close to 60 people (14 August 2026). It only runs on some weekdays, so check yours.

Check the cruise for your date

The reef safari: an early start and a semi-submersible

Vision Voyages DMC's day starts at 8:00 AM on the catamaran Anahita, adds a semi-submersible vessel that dips below the waves over the reef, then a buffet lunch with a guitarist and a visit to Moyenne. It has no fee line either way. Reviewers in 2025 wrote of a dead reef at the snorkel spot (8 November 2025), a group of at least 60 on board (26 May 2025) and a pickup that took an hour to arrive (13 May 2025).

Mae Guide: the lowest price, with the fees on top

At $82.91 an adult for the Shared Group Tour, Mae Guide's day costs about half the cruise, and its route takes in more of the park: a glass bottom boat from Eden Island Marina, the sandbank between Long and Round Islands and a BBQ lunch on Cerf Island. The Moyenne trail is “upon requests”, and its fee is extra, as are the marine fees. Of its 350 most recent reviews (April to November 2026), 220 give five stars and 55 three or fewer. Reviewers describe extra charges on the day, late pickups, and some days that did not land on Moyenne at all (3 April, 27 June and 28 July 2026). If Moyenne is the point, confirm the trail with the operator before you book.

East coast Explorer: a glass boat from Eden Island

East coast Explorer's glass boat day starts at Eden Island, with glass bottom viewing, snorkelling, a 45-minute nature trail on Moyenne on request, the Round and Long Island sandbank and a Creole buffet. It has far fewer reviews than the others, 25. Reviewers wrote of having to choose between Moyenne and a second snorkel (15 July 2026), of a trip back by 3:45 PM after a late start (4 July 2026) and of going round Moyenne with no guide (8 November 2026).
