Diving & Snorkelling
Take the plunge and discover the underwater world of the Seychelles. No PADI certificate? No problem. Our certified instructors can help. Want to stay closer to the surface? Snag some snorkeling gear and peer into life under the sea. Contact the concierge for prices and reservations.
Surfing
Catch a wave and learn something new. Our instructors can teach you to surf the Seychelles’ waters.
Mangrove & Vacoa Nature Trail Discovery
Get up close with marshland animals and mangrove trees on the Mangrove & Vacoa Trail. Hike towards beach, then double back inland towards the Dauban River and see the pandanus or screw pines—vacoa in the local language—which the trail is named after.
Cooking Classes
Fallen in love with Seychelles’ cuisine? Bring a taste of island life home by learning to whip up Creole or Thai dishes in one of our cooking classes. Start with a visit to the market: Pick the freshest fare and meet local farmers. Then head back to the hotel for a refreshing snack, and let the cooking fun begin!

Kids and parents both have time to play when wee ones join AVANI Kid’s Club, open every day. Pint-sized guests ages 4 to 12 enjoy supervised play and new friends while moms and dads relax or explore.
