The experience

A day to slow down, at the pace of the sea

Zaou Mtsahara Découverte takes you aboard a fast, safe boat to explore the most beautiful spots in the Mayotte lagoon.

Deserted beaches, volcanic rocks, sandbanks appearing between two waters: every stop is a chance to swim, watch marine life and simply enjoy. Lunch is served on the beach, in the shade, with your feet in the sand.
