It's time to dispel the myth about the Seychelles. When people think of Seychelles, even those who have been there, they conjure up images reminiscent of a Bounty commercial, all indulgent wealth and luxury. And this dream can be fulfilled by heading to one of the outer islands, where tourists can cocoon themselves in a resort just expending enough effort to adjust the straw in their alarmingly expensive cocktail and direct their masseuse to that aggravating knot of stress. These visitors will leave suntanned and happy, regaling tales from their superficial experience about perfect beaches and the helpful pool boy, but without the first idea of the real people, the politics and the culture. And for the Seychellois, life isn't such a beach.
Seychelles has a history of social and political unrest, and there are many tales of forced ...

My husband and I have now been on the Atoll 3 times.The first time we had booked a week on the boat and a week on one of the Islands.

We have just returned from an amazing holiday that was a week on the Atoll Explorer and a week on Biyadhoo. (12/8/07to 27/8/07) The previous review is very true today.
We booked through Voyages Jules Verne on their internet site.The whole holiday cost £3,390 for the two of us.
We were transfered by speedboat to the Atoll Explorer and were welcomed with a cocktail and a brief outline of the boat and itinery for the North Ari Atoll trip. The boat is perfect for both serious divers and those who snorkel or just want a relaxing holiday in the most photographic locations. It is a liveaboard dive boat.
We had booked a B cabin and had cabin 19a which had a small balcony with two chairs. Though small it was perfect with a great picture window like patio doors with air conditioning as well.
The staff from the Captain down to ...
