Getting There
-

If you are traveling by car, start from any point in Île Thérèse and head towards the main road that leads to the western coast of the island. Follow the signs for the coastal route that circles the island. Drive along the road until you reach the northern tip of the island. There, you will find a small harbor area where you can park your car. From this point, you will need to arrange for a boat transfer to Round Island, as it is not accessible by road.

Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, take a local bus or taxi from your location in Île Thérèse to the main harbor area on the northern coast of the island. The bus will drop you off near the small harbor where you can find local boat operators. Confirm with them about boat schedules to Round Island. Please note that the boat ride may incur a fee, typically around 50-100 SCR (Seychellois Rupees) per person, depending on the operator and time of day.

Boat Transfer
Once you reach the harbor, look for a boat operator offering trips to Round Island. Make sure to ask about the return schedule to avoid being stranded. The boat ride usually takes about 15-20 minutes. It's advisable to negotiate the price in advance, and ensure you have cash on hand as credit cards may not be accepted. Keep in mind that weather conditions can affect boat availability, so it’s good to check in advance.
