Semi-Submarine Seychelles
About This Museum
Believe it or not, you can explore a coral reef without even getting your hair wet. You descend into the belly of this bright yellow, boat-like vessel that sits partially submerged in the water off Eden Island. Through massive panoramic windows lining the hull, you're suddenly eye-to-eye with schools of electric-blue damselfish and maybe even a slow-moving turtle. It feels less like a museum and more like you've stumbled into a secret underwater observatory.
Collection Highlights
The main attraction is the living coral garden just outside the windows, teeming with parrotfish, curious angelfish, and intricate fan corals. It's a constantly changing exhibit of Seychelles' marine life.
Visitor Information
Trips run several times a day from the marina, and it's perfect for families or anyone who isn't keen on snorkeling but still wants the full underwater show.
Architecture & Building
It looks like a quirky, bright yellow boat permanently docked, but its lower deck is fully submerged with huge viewing windows instead of a hull.
