Hey everyone, I've been daydreaming about a longer yacht trip in the Seychelles—like 7-10 days hopping between those insane islands—and I'm kinda stuck on the whole packing and provisioning side of things. Last summer I did a short weekend thing on a lake boat here in Europe, and I totally overpacked junk food only to realize half of it went bad in the heat, plus I forgot decent reef shoes and ended up with sore feet after every beach stop. For something tropical and multi-day out there with limited resupply spots, how do you guys handle the food/drinks situation? Do you go full provisioning lists and stock up everything beforehand, rely on what's included if it's crewed, or mix in some local buys along the way? Any must-bring items that saved your trip or lessons from forgetting something crucial? Really curious what works in that humid paradise setup.

Man, that lake weekend sounds familiar—I've had my share of those "why did I bring three bags of chips" moments too. On my Seychelles trip a couple years back, we went for a week-long catamaran hop starting from Mahé, and honestly the provisioning part made all the difference once we were out on the water. We chose a setup where the basics like water, some fresh stuff, and light snacks came included with the crew handling meals, but we still brought along our own coffee (because yacht stuff never tastes quite right), a few favorite spices, and extra sunscreen since you burn way faster than you think out there. For longer stays, I'd say plan meals loosely ahead—think easy stuff like pasta, canned goods that don't need constant fridge space, and plenty of bottled water if you're not sure about refills at every anchorage. We hit a couple small shops on Praslin and La Digue for fruit and bread, which kept things fresh without over-relying on one big stock-up. If you're into snorkeling a ton, toss in some extra masks or fins too. Overall, less is more with clothes—just quick-dry shorts, a few tees, and swim stuff—but don't skimp on the personal comforts like your go-to snacks. Check out daily boat hire for island exploration boat rental seychelles options if you're still browsing boats; some have really flexible provisioning add-ons that feel more personal than generic. What kind of group size are you thinking?
