Discover the Escapade Island
When making your reservation, the catamaran is not confirmed. You are placed on hold. The service provider will validate your reservation at least 24 hours before if it has collected the minimum number of people to start the departure. You will receive your confirmation of the activity the day before departure if the outing is validated.
The Escapade island is one of the rare inhabited islets of the South lagoon with its Hilton hotel. Its endemic vegetation is common to the islets of the southern lagoon.
The Escapade islet lends itself to excursions in flippers, mask and snorkel on the reef that borders the islet.
We regularly come across turtles, striped knits and more than 160 varieties of fish.
Turtles are easily observed in depths of 3 m.
