  • This video is from a long anticipated liveaboard dive trip to the remote Aldabra Atoll in the Seychelles Islands. The cruise had its up and downs, with quite a few long days and nights at sea. It definitely qualifies as the road less travelled, or perhaps the seas less travelled. The areas around Aldabra Atoll and the outer islands of the Seychelles are still quite pristine, and the wildlife above and below the water was amazing. We spent the week prior to the liveaboard in Beau Vallon, on Mahe Island, diving with Atoll Divers. We had a great time there and the diving was quite good. This video documents the entire journey.

    That was great! I can't believe I missed this one. I like your organization of the fish by type rather than chronologically.

    How much is this all trip cost? And what u need to dive like this? What would u recommend for a begginner who want an experience like this? Thanks all! Have a great day! ;)

      www.aldabraexpeditions.com/aldabra2020-697715-860890-172024.html. Here is the website. Silhouette cruises are the only ones that I know of that go there. It is quite expensive because of this and because it uses a lot of fuel to travel great distances. Some of the dives are quite advanced, with strong currents. You should be in good shape, have some experience and be confident in your abilities. It is quite a wonderful and unique experience should you decide to go.

      In the Indian Ocean off the coast of East Africa. You should look it up in Google Maps.
