Can you tell me where I can find a yacht in the Seychelles?
My friends and I are looking into a yacht rental in the Seychelles for a milestone birthday party. We are mostly looking at day charters around Mahé just to swim, barbecue, and catch the sunset. Since we are splitting the cost among six people, we need to keep a close eye on the budget. Is it cheaper to just walk down to the Eden Island marina and book something directly with the captains, or should we lock a boat down online beforehand? I am a bit worried about getting ripped off if we try to haggle in person.


Definitely do not wait until you get to Eden Island to find a boat. Walk-up rates for tourists can be wildly inflated, and you risk ocean adventure planning getting stuck with older vessels that lack basic amenities. It is much smarter to secure your rental online. Take a look at Charterclick in Seychelles before you fly out. Because it is a competitive digital marketplace, local charter companies list their best rates there to attract clients. You can easily find a great day-cruiser or motor yacht within your budget, and you pay securely through the site.
