Which Sainte Anne Marine Park Snorkelling Tour Should You Book?
Updated October 11, 2026 · 3 min read
For most travellers, book the Mahe Island: St. Anne Marine Park Snorkeling Trip: four guided morning hours in the park and 4.9 stars from 77 reviews, for €133 per person. If price or a full day matters more, the Glass-Bottom Boat and Crystal Kayak Snorkeling at Ste Anne Marine Park costs €72. The zip-line trip is a different outing, not a third way to see Sainte Anne.
| Tour | Duration | From | Rating | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mahe Island: St. Anne Marine Park Snorkeling Trip | 4 hours | €133 | 4.9 (77 reviews) | a dedicated morning in the water |
| Glass-Bottom Boat and Crystal Kayak Snorkeling at Ste Anne Marine Park | 1 day | €72 | 4.5 (52 reviews) | a broad full day for less |
| Mahe Island: Zip Lining and Marine Park Snorkeling Excursion | 4 hours | €295 | 4.5 (16 reviews) | the zip line first, snorkelling second |
Four hours, snorkelling first
Only this listing says the tour is guided and runs in the morning, and it names no lunch and no landing. That makes it a half day with the afternoon left free. It costs €61 more than the full-day trip below and the listing does not say why; what you can verify is the guided format and the strongest review record of the three.

Skip it if you want lunch, tortoises or island hopping: none of them is in this description.
€72 for a whole day
The 72-euro listing is the broadest: snorkelling, a glass-bottom boat, a transparent kayak, island hopping, a sandbank landing, a Creole barbecue buffet and giant tortoises. Its 4.5 from 52 reviews sits below the morning trip, and its description does not mention a guide. All those stops share one day, so keen snorkellers get fewer minutes in the water than on the four-hour trip.

The zip-line trip is somewhere else
The third listing flies you over the forest with a view of Port Launay Bay and then snorkels with colourful fish. Its description names Port Launay, not Sainte Anne, so it is not a marine-park alternative to the other two. At €295 for one person and with 16 reviews at 4.5, book it for the zip line.

Our recommendation
For a snorkelling-led half day, book the Mahe Island: St. Anne Marine Park Snorkeling Trip. Take the glass-bottom and kayak day when price, lunch and variety outweigh time in the water, and leave the zip-line trip to people who want the zip line.
