Hi there, It really depends what you want included in your boat trip and your budget - both time and money . . . There's a 7 hr catamaran trip. One such cruise departs at 09:00 from the Preskil Beach Resort’s Jetty located at Pointe Jerome on the South East of Mauritius. Expected arrival time back is 16:30, and depends on tide and winds. Lots of inclusions - snorkelling, lunch,the world class sanctuary of Anahita before dropping you off on the famous white sand bank of Ile aux cerfs. After spending some time on Ile aux Cerfs, you will re-embark on the catamaran and sail back to the Hotel’s jetty. Once on board tea and coffee is served as well as slices of cake, not to forget the open bar that remains open. Lunch includes:-Paste Salad Coleslaw Salad Assorted meat platter consisting of: chicken, fish fillet, lamb brochette, beef brochette, pork sausage Baked yoghurt with assortment of toppings Non-stop supply of all drinks is offered throughout the day including: Mineral Water, Juices (selection of tropical juices), Soft Drinks (Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite & Fanta), and a selection of alcoholic beverages: Beers, Rhum, Red Wine, Rose Wine and White Wine. Gear onboard: Snorkeling gear including flippers, mask and tuba as well as the colorful pool noodles is available for you to enjoy. What to bring: We suggest bringing swimming suit, beach towel, sun cream, cap or hat as well as sun glasses. This trip costs 59 Euros for adults and 39 Euros and must be booked. Unless you go for a luxury trip, this is roughly the cost point you can expect. Other types of trip include:-Catamaran Cruise to Ile Aux Cerfs from two possible departure points: Blue Bay or Trou d'Eau Douce Budget / Standard tours to Ile Aux Cerfs trip by motor boat Pirate boat trip Ile Aux Cerfs in the spirit of the pirates Customised Half day / Full day trip to Ile Aux Cerfs going by car and motor boat / speed boat You can also go on a customised luxury trip to Ile Aux Cerfs including: helicopter flight trips, luxury exclusive speed boat, private catamaran trips and even a yacht cruise Something for every budget. I definitely advise going on an organised trip NOT going alone.
