Port Victoria (Mahe) : Profile
Contact the harbour master before arrival. Yachts are usually directed on arrival to the main anchorage protected by the breakwater. The anchorage in front of the yacht club (south of Houdoul island) is protected but rather noisy in proximity to the boatyards (good if you need repair work done). Berths may also be available in the new port; seek permission from the charter companies who own them first.
