Detailed itinerary

The day started with a private vehicle picking you up at the hotel and driving you to the Constance Ephelia Hotel where the SMAC Adventure is located. On the way to the hotel, you will explore the beautiful scenery of Seychelles and explore the history and culture of the country by interacting with the driver. Upon Arrival, the driver will introduce you to the guide and you will gear up and debrief about safety measures before going on the 8 zipline adventures. It is a tour full of adrenaline and fun, gliding through the air among the trees, high above the ground with spectacular views of Port Launay Bay. The activity will take around 1 hour and a half to complete. Experience the only Seychelles Zip Lines over the lush green forest canopy. 8 zipline that measure between 80 meters to approximately 120 meters length. Lines are 20 to 24 meters height

After the forest adventure, you will be transported to Port Launay Beach to explore the marine park by snorkelling or just enjoy the breathtaking beach by sunbathing and relaxing on the sandy beaches. The calm ocean surface lends itself well to swimming and snorkelling, while the numerous rental options mean that visitors can try their hand at surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, scuba diving, fishing, sailing, or even kayaking and canoeing. Such a variety of activities is rare in Seychelles, making this beach a great option for the more active Seychelles holidaymaker. That’s not to say that you can’t relax here either. The beautiful sandy surface and ample shade ensure that long, laid-back days relaxing in the tropical sunshine are just as rewarding as days spent surfing or scuba-diving.

As a traditional routine, before going back home after a long day at the beach, relaxing in the freshwater is one of the ways to cool off and enjoy another perspective of what the island has to offer. Enjoy a nice swim in one of the world's purest water and benefit from a number of health benefits that comes with it. The Sauzier Waterfall is one of the most visited places in Seychelles by tourists who enjoy nature. The pond-looking scenery is beautiful and will make you want to small or feet Deeping. An estimated 30 minutes maximum is expected to spend in this place.
