An uninhabited island nature reserve with pristine beaches and excellent snorkeling.
A thrilling speedboat adventure to the pristine shores of Ilot Gabriel with snorkeling stops. Speedboat tours from Grand Bay or nearby jetties get you to the northern islands quickly, leaving more time for swimming and exploring. Ilot Gabriel is an uninhabited island with white sand beaches and clear waters ideal for snorkeling. The speedboat ride itself is part of the fun—wind in your hair and stunning views of Coin de Mire and the north coast. Tours typically include snorkeling gear, time on the beach, and sometimes a light lunch or refreshments. Perfect for families and adventure seekers who want a faster-paced day on the water.
