As here outside, the sea tears the waves to a height of up to 3-4 m and a funny swing trip begins.
Those who walk alongside the boardwalk of Grand Baie, will see several of such catamarans of different sizes in the water. Posez vos questions et … Alors c'est vrai que pour s'y rendre un rabatteur rencontré à l'église auxiliaire nous a proposé de nous y emmener avt les "touristes " le matin. Nous proposons une panoplie d’excursions : coucher de soleil, découverte de l’ilot Gabriel à bord du catamaran de 40 pieds. We did not book our catamaran excursion at our travel agency in the hotel but right at a small office in Grand Baie. This time, we sat at the very back of the ship where we did not get one splash, other guests lied straight in the big meshes in order to get as much sun and water as possible.On the trip back, we enjoy the view backwards to the two dream islands, gaze at the high sea with its waves of a height of several metres and look with a high respect to the rock face heighted 163 m of the island Coin de Mire. L'île est très célèbre pour ses plages vierges et son eau turquoise entourant l’île. Of course, in this case there is no comfort at all.Thus, after all passengers found their places, we casted off and left the bay Grand Baie.

While the navigation up to the reef limit was as calmed as a harbour sight seeing trip, some minutes later, we find ourselves in the high seas. Ses plages de sable fin et son eau turquoise en font un paradis naturel. We really navigated into a small piece of paradise and we hardly can believe what we see there. We accessed the ship in the morning around 09.30 a.m.; A crew of five persons friendly welcomed us and 20 other passengers. While in the beginning, we gaze at the waves heighted more than 1 m, the adventure starts the closer we get to the island Coin de Mire. Pour les fans de snorkeling, le site de l’ilot Gabriel est très sympa en plus. Un bon signal pour savoir qu’il est l’heure de passer à table. The crew has a lot of trouble in maneuvering the wide catamaran through the breaking waves at the edge of the reef between both islands, but they excellent cope with the task.What we see then can be hardly described with words.

We have made such an catamaran tour, and in the following chapter, I describe this unforgettable experience.In each hotel of Mauritius, the travel agencies offer in their excursion program a catamaran trip to the island Gabriel. But those who are looking for the real paradise of the island Mauritius, that offers a lot, starting from dream beaches up to the big city Port Louis that is stressful and polluted by waste gas, I recommend a day excursion to the island Ilot Gabriel that is located at the north. Nous aurions aimé pouvoir profiter de l’ilot plus longtemps. Le déjeuner sera servi au mouillage au bord du catamaran. Both islands and also the island Coin de Mire are under natural protection, which means that here, it is not allowed to carry out agricultural activities, neither hotels, restaurants, or the like can be arranged.As already said before, both islands Ile Plate and Ilot Gabriel are surrounded by a common coral reef; in the interior of the reef, that means also between both islands, there is a dream underwater world to discover.
While we enjoy the good sound of the stereo of our catamaran and help ourselves at the board bar, we look around full of fascination and are simply amazed.The crew gives us some details concerning the circumstances of the currents and the wind, then we get into the fins, put the diving goggles on and get into the water. Vous apprécierez une excursion inoubliable mélangeant une grande expérience de croisière sur un catamaran de luxe et du temps libre pour apprécier la belle Ilot Gabriel. I have heard about catamaran trips were it was so crowded that the people even had to switch to the yawls in order to get a seat during the lunch time.
Tout y est sauvage et c’est un bel endroit pour observer les oiseaux. Around 01.30 p.m. we get our lunch in form of a buffet in the catamaran. Already in the normal waters with sand ground we see more coloured fishes as I saw until then in other beaches. Si vous aimez l’ambiance fête et familiale, je vous recommande de partir sur l’îlot Gabriel. The trip with the catamaran was a spectacular adventure, the stay on the island Gabriel equaled a visit to an island paradise, I will never forget the underwater world that we admired, the atmosphere on board was good, the crew was extremely friendly and we say good-bye by throwing a generous tip into the crew cash.But on the trip back there was a small disappointment that was that the many pictures that a crew member took during the trip could be purchased for approximately 40 €.
