First up today is Cousin Island, which has been a nature reserve since 1968. Step ashore to visit the bird sanctuary on the island before returning to the ship.

Make the most of these idyllic surroundings and enjoy swimming, snorkelling, sunbathing or napping before heading back to the ship.
Day 7 Anse Lazio, Praslin
Experience a wake up call like no other as experienced island rangers escort you on an early morning guided tour to the top of Aride island for a one-in-a-million vantage point, so have your camera at the ready! Aride is famous for a variety of indigenous species which your guide will point out as you traverse the unique landscape.

Wherever you end up, fun is guaranteed in the Seychelles sun. This evening, sail on to La Digue.

Later this afternoon, sail on to Moyenne Island.
