About the Activity

What to Expect

Discover the marine wildlife of Reunion Island with our sunset boat trip from Saint-Gilles with whale watching and drinks. This experience begins at the charming harbour of Saint-Gilles, where you will board our comfortable RIB boat, adaptable for people with reduced mobility. As the boat glides away from the shore, keep your eyes peeled for the majestic whales and dolphins that often accompany us on our journey, a true spectacle for nature lovers and families alike. We will go in search of whales during the season, from early July to late September. However, whale watching cannot be guaranteed as these are wild animals.

The tour continues with a breathtaking view of the sunset over the sea, casting a warm glow over the horizon. This is a perfect time to relax and enjoy the company of your small group, appreciating the tranquillity of the ocean. The highlight of the trip is undoubtedly the view of Reunion Island at sunset, where the island's silhouette is beautifully outlined against the vibrant sky, offering a postcard-perfect moment that you will not want to miss.

As the day turns to dusk, the boat gently returns to Saint-Gilles, concluding an unforgettable evening on the water. This sunset boat trip is ideal for small families and friend groups, providing an intimate and memorable experience with a touch of adventure.
