While most people nowadays travel between the islands by fast catamaran, it is also possible to catch a schooner.
The Seychelles lie in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and the main islands are linked by fast catamarans and flights carried out by small aircraft. The traditional way to travel from one island to the other is, however, by schooner. These are small boats that nowadays mostly carry cargo, but they do also take passengers. It is not known by everyone, and on the way from Mahé to Praslin Island, we were refused passages because the boat had to carry gas, and for security reasons no passengers were accepted.
