SY Sea Bird & SY Sea Star are two sister sailing yachts offering a shared liveaboard experience focused on diving, snorkeling, and adventure cruises in the Seychelles.
Operating under the same concept and standards, these traditional sailing vessels invite guests to explore the breathtaking Inner Islands of the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean.
Departing from Mahé, the cruises typically run for 7 nights and navigate around Praslin, La Digue, and the Sister Islands. Guests can enjoy excellent diving and snorkeling conditions, along with a variety of land excursions, including nature trails, bird-watching, visits to mangroves, encounters with giant tortoises, and explorations of historic island ruins.
Both yachts are custom-built sailing vessels featuring hand-crafted wooden interiors that reflect a classic maritime style. Cabins are air-conditioned and equipped with private en-suite bathrooms, storage space, and double or triple bedding configurations. Shared indoor areas include an air-conditioned bar, dining room, and salon with TV, DVD player, and stereo system, as well as laundry facilities. Outdoor spaces include several sun decks and a shaded aft lounge area, ideal for relaxing between activities.
A professional and experienced crew of nine operates both Sea Bird and Sea Star, ensuring a high standard of service on board. They guide guests through the rich underwater ecosystems of the Seychelles’ Inner Islands, home to tropical reef fish, sharks, barracuda, jacks, tuna, and occasional whale sharks. Meals on board feature freshly prepared Creole and international cuisine.
With a balanced mix of diving, snorkeling, and island exploration, Sea Bird & Sea Star are an excellent choice for both divers and non-divers seeking an authentic sailing and adventure experience in the Seychelles.
