Located in the Seychelles, St. Anne's National Marine Park is one of the most popular tourist destinations. Vacationers are attracted to it by the rich, colorful underwater world; ideal conditions are created here for snorkeling and full-fledged scuba diving. This park was founded in 1973, and its main goal was to preserve not only ocean life, but also the cultural heritage of the archipelago.

This marine park is home to many rare fish, animals and birds, and Hawksbill turtles lay their eggs here. In its waters there are spacious underwater meadows of marine plants, which, in turn, are home to many marine inhabitants.

The marine park is located about five kilometers from the island of Mahe, it includes 6 islands: St. Anne, Moyen, Cerf, Long, Round and Cache. The islands of Long, Round, St. Anne and Surf are home to luxury resorts where happy tourists enjoy a superb holiday in privacy. Moyen Island is always popular due to the fact that among its lush vegetation there is a small chapel, pirate graves, the remains of the houses of the first settlers and the colorful Jolly Roger restaurant and bar, serving Creole cuisine. But the main inhabitants of the island are the numerous turtles and birds that migrate freely throughout the island. Cache Island is very small - only 5 hectares, but despite this, it serves as a breeding ground for birds, and there are also attractive diving spots near it. An equally interesting and colorful underwater world is located near Round Island.

Excursions are organized daily to the St. Anne Marine National Park, the most popular of which are those carried out on a glass-bottomed boat. In addition, visitors to the park can watch dolphins, swim next to sea turtles, and enjoy the beauty of coral reefs and a variety of fish scurrying between them. The park has a number of restaurants where you can dine and numerous deserted beaches where you can relax. Tourists should remember that on the territory of the marine park, collecting corals and shells, fishing, as well as noisy forms of entertainment: motor boating and water skiing are strictly prohibited. Entry into the park requires tickets, which must be kept at all times during your stay as park rangers may be asked to show them during their daily patrols.

If you book a boat excursion with local tour operators, they will immediately include a ticket to St. Anne's National Marine Park in the price, and you can also buy it at the ticket office in the capital of the archipelago, Victoria.
