Seychelles

Seychelles yacht charter

In the winter months, the 115 sparkling isles of these six diverse archipelagos present a refreshing alternative to a Caribbean charter. The Inner Island group includes Mahé, Praslin, Curieuse, La Digue and 41 more tall, granitic islands. Next is the Amirantes group, 250 km southwest of Mahé, the Southern Coral group, Alphonse group, Farquhar group and finally the Aldabra group, 1,100 km from Mahé, home to the giant Aldabra tortoise. These low-lying, coralline Outer Islands extend in a gleaming arc towards the east coast of Africa. 

Home to a vibrant diversity of cultures, the Seychelles’ sparkling blue lagoons, lush verdant islands, UNESCO-listed Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve, immaculate white sands, dramatic rock formations and countless coral gardens offer world-class swimming, snorkelling and diving.

New to charter?

Whether you are looking for a 70m motor yacht to cruise the Caribbean or have your heart set on an adrenaline-fuelled sailing experience, we are on hand to guide you every step of the way.
Frequently asked questions
I’ve never chartered before, where do I start?
To get started, one of our brokers will ask you questions, like how many people you want to bring aboard, whether you know where you want to go and what you want to do. From sailing to motor, catamaran to explorer – we’ll shortlist yachts of a style, size and capability that match your preferences and suggest bucket-list cruising grounds.  
How many guests can be on board?
The majority of yachts can cruise with 8-12 guests, depending on their length. For bigger parties, some yachts built to the Passenger Yacht Code (PYC) can carry up to 36 guests – these yachts are usually above 80m (260ft) long. For events, yachts can have more people on board provided they stay in port.
Why do I need a charter broker? Why can’t I book direct?

Planning the perfect charter requires specialist knowledge, trusted contacts on board and on the ground, as well as first-hand knowledge of yachts, crews and locations, as well as legal contracts and local regulations to build an experience that suits you perfectly. Another reason to choose a broker is that sometimes there can be unforeseen issues with yachts or destinations and having an experienced broker to protect your interests and build a plan B is hugely reassuring. 

Creating the unforgettable is what we do at Burgess. It’s what our knowledge, experience and passion are all about. We take all the hassle out of the planning so you can just turn up and have the best holiday ever. 

I have a few allergies, how can I let the yacht know about these and also about my preferences?
A few weeks before your charter starts, we’ll send you a detailed questionnaire that lets us know the preferences and special requirements of everyone in your party. It will cover dietary and medical requirements, allergies and any special requests, birthdays or entertainment, for instance. This helps us and the crew of your yacht make sure your charter will be everything you hope it will be.
