Ferry and transfers, yours questions |
You will find essential information regarding Cat Cocos or Cat Roses ferries and transfers to get from your hotel or Mahe and Praslin airport to the ferry pier. However, all the information concerning the departure, check-in and connection times are indicated on the results page of your search and in the transfer section following the selection of the optional transfer (always in the results page of your search).
You must be at least 45 minutes before departure to check in and redeem the vouchers you received at the Cat Cocos office at Victoria Pier in Mahe or Baie St Anne Pier in Praslin. At the jetty at the DIgue, you just need to be present 30 minutes before the departure of the Cat Cocos or Cat Roses ferry.
It takes about 15 minutes if there is no traffic jam. Note that during the week between 6.30 am and 8.30 am in the morning and between 3.30 pm and 5 pm in the afternoon there are traffic jams and require up to 40 minutes!
No, it is not at all easy to use public transport and you cannot take the local bus with your suitcases! You should plan to book your airport transfer to Cat Cocos Pier at the same time as your Cat Cocos tickets. You can book your private transfers at the same time as your ferry tickets on this site. Note that the Taxi is very expensive and that the free or paid shuttles that provide the connection in grouped from Mahe airport are often full and take longer than a private vehicle.
It is possible but you very often risk not having any space available from Mahe, Praslin or La Digue. We advise you to book your ferry tickets well in advance on ferryseychelles.com
The "Eco Coco de Mer" cabin has comfortable air-conditioned seats, the "Upper Deck" cabin is in the open with chairs and a bar. People suffering from seasickness generally prefer to be in the open air and see the sea! The price difference is very small, we recommend the “Upper Deck” cabin! The business / VIP class known as Lazio Lounge is more comfortable and is equipped with a kiosk bar.
The crossing between Mahe and Praslin lasts 1 hour, between Mahe and La Digue the crossing takes 1h10 for the direct connection (non-stop to Praslin) and 1h30 for the non-direct connection (with stopover without change in Praslin).
The Cat Cocos Pier is in Victoria, it takes 10 minutes by transfer if there is no traffic jam.
You must be present 45 minutes before departure at the Baie St Anne jetty in Praslin, at the Cat Cocos or Cat Rose office for baggage check-in.
It takes 25 minutes to reach Baie St Anne jetty from Praslin Airport.
You must be present 30 minutes before departure at the Baie de La Digue jetty, on the only quay to wait for the Cat Cocos or the Cat Rose.
It takes 10 minutes to reach the La Digue jetty, it is imperative to book your transfers in advance because the means of transport are scarce and those offered by the hotels may be longer given the number of clients to be transported for a same start. On our site "ferryseychelles.com" we offer private transfers with one of the few carriers.
