The Indian Ocean remains one of the last few regions on earth which could be considered ‘off the beaten path’ for most travellers.
From coralline atolls to volcanic formations and even the world’s only cluster of oceanic granite islands, the Indian Ocean plays host to what is arguably the most diverse and beautiful handful of islands and coastlines.
Enjoying Indian Ocean cruises is arguably the best way to soak up the rich diversity this region has to offer. Travelling on Indian Ocean cruises one may experience the most stunning beaches, incredibly unique wildlife and rich cultures all rolled into one holiday.
Indian Ocean cruises may venture as far as the exotic pristine islets of the Seychelles and the astounding coastlines of Madagascar.
Indian Ocean cruises devoted to a single destination allow for travellers to experience a country much more in-depth, by taking the time to visit various islands and regions unique to that destination. Such cruising holidays allow for a more convenient experience in which to discover the various islands, without the hassle of transfers and individually booked excursions. Instead a cruise holiday manages to bring all the best islands and attractions directly to the traveller, offering a diverse blend of the sea, beautiful beaches, local culture and wildlife – both beneath the sea and above.
Silhouette Cruises is one of the leading Indian Ocean cruises operators with more than 10 years of experience within Seychelles, and which will soon be operating Indian Ocean Cruises in Madagascar as well.
Out of all the Indian Ocean cruises a traveller may indulge in, perhaps there is none more exciting than Seychelles: with 115 islands of both granite and coral formation, each isle possesses its own unique charm with easy sailing distances between them, allowing visitors to experience the true diversity of the archipelago.
With Silhouette Cruises one may visit the beautiful islands of not only Mahé, Praslin and La Digue, but also some of the more remote islands which seldom few travellers have the chance to experience. An ideal blend of snorkelling, diving and other water-sports, combined with island visits to nature reserves and national parks playing host to unique wildlife, are all experienced in a leisurely and service-oriented atmosphere onboard the vessel, serving as a ‘floating hotel’ on which to move around the islands.
There may be no better Indian Ocean cruises experience than visiting up to 10 different isles in little more than a week in the Seychelles archipelago. Of the wide variety of Indian Ocean cruises on offer in the region, Seychelles may be one of the best, but it is far from the only option.
In some ways that make it similar to Seychelles, the northwestern coast of Madagascar, with its variety of small islets and islands with beautiful beaches and unspoilt nature and wildlife, make it an ideal spot for travellers seeking a destination for Indian Ocean cruises.
With Silhouette Cruises’ expeditionary and oceanographic vessel Maya’s Dugong, Indian Ocean cruises will soon begin operating along the coast of northwest Madagascar, out of the island of Nosy Be.
