Our most favourite beach on the Seychelles. White sand, also in the water. Plenty of shaded areas, not crowded even in peak times, and the parking lot is also close. The iconic granite rocks and the crystal clear blue / torqoise water are amazing. Good for relaxing, swimming, snorkeling. Definitely should be on your list!

Excellent beach. Recommended the parking at the last restaurant where they also have toilets and showers. It is 100 scr and some discount at restaurant. The water is clean and the beach is amazing you also have space to hide from the sun

One of the most beautiful beaches I saw. Wide beach and shade from palms, coconuts selling available. Good for sunset

Amazing scenery. A must visit. Yes it gets busy but if you go early it's quite peaceful. Heaps of fish in the water just 2m off the beach so is great for snorkling . Plenty of trees to set up under on the banks. The water can come up quite high so make sure you perch on a bank and not on the flat.

The trip to Anse Lazio was organized for us by the Coco de Mer hotel and Mr. Ahmed. We embarked on a bus journey across Praslin Island, where we admired the beauty of this island, a true paradise. Upon arrival, just a few meters' walk separated us from what, in my opinion, is the most beautiful beach in the world. You have the option to rent a beach lounger for 100 rupees, which I recommend as the sand on the beach is very fine and easily sticks to the skin :) with the rental of loungers, you also have access to toilets and showers. Locals stroll along the beach, offering coconuts for a friendly fee, which you can drink and eat from. Now, onto the beach and the water itself, my wife and I didn't want to leave the water because it was so wonderful, with waves, clear water, and the sun—it's all you need. However, I must warn you, if you don't have a rash guard, be sure to apply sunscreen because it is very strong and you can get severe sunburns. Otherwise, it's heaven on earth, and we will definitely return.

The most beautiful Beach in Seychelles. Clean, white sand, different shades of blue water, some rocks scattered around. Very photogenic and has good shade to cool off. Enjoyed our time here and took some amazing personal pics. Loved it. If you want to eat or drink or even use the shop, bring your own, the restaurant close by is a disappointment in all standards, don’t be fooled

It is the most beautiful beach in the island. A lot of weddings are celebrated here and you can see one if you are lucky.. it is also a wonderful spot for snorkeling where you can swim with marine turtles and rays. In the eastern part of the beach, in the low water near the shallow, you can always find cute baby sharks… don’t worry! They are not dangerous! Enjoy the wonderful landscapes and wildlife of this place!

Wow, what a sunset experience for ages, at this beach! This is a beach that has made to the front page of so many travel magazines. Anse Lazio is huge and has incredibly soft white sand. Anse Lazio is also perfect for swimming.

So fun playing with waves!!! 😍😀😃Waves are a little big but NO currents sweeping or dragging people away into farther deep sea. Sands are very soft and the beach doesn’t drop off suddenly in the water which makes it safe and fun to swim. And there are professional lifeguards looking down. Personally this seems like the safest beach to swim in the Seychelles.

The most beautiful beach on Pralin, but that also means it is the most popular beach. But the beach has more than enough places with shade so you should be able to find a spot. Depending on the time of the year there can be big waves and swimming/snorkeling is not always possible. When I was here at the end of May the sea was too rough, but even on those days it is beautiful place to walk around and enjoy the views and not really swimming but high waves can still be fun.

Best beach in the Seychelles, we went to all 3 of the big islands and this was my favourite, the water was pristine and the sand white and soft. Absolutely loved this place. Pictures do not give it justice We went early in the morning and the beach was empty, parking is available close by. (Paid parking)

Very nice beach, the only thing is the paid parking. But if I would have land next to such place, I would probably do the same easy income business. You can walk around the coastal area, which will get you to smaller beaches, if you continue the trek further you can even get to the Lemuria golf resort with Anse Georgette. Beware of waves, and tide level on the smaller beaches.

Anse Lazio is one of the best beaches on Praslin Island. Though not perfect for swimming cause of strong waves but its picturesque, perfect white sand and feels like you are living a postcard scenery. It has one of the paid parking, usually it is free everywhere else in Praalin. One you park your car and pay seychelles rupees 100 you walk down for 5 mins to reach the beach. There's a restaurant near beach which also charge Rs.100 but offers you wi-fi, bathroom and shower facilities along with parking space. This made sense so better to park at this restaurant rather than parking at the first parking lot.

The most beautiful beach on Praslin. You can also snorkel on one part of it although the water is a bit murky. There is plenty of different fishes, some corals, lots of stingrays and I also saw a turtle. The beach was not over crowded and everyone had a spot in the shade. There is also a shack serving fresh juices and some cocktails on the beach.

One of the best beaches in the world. Pristine white sand beach, usually not a lot of rush, nice beach for snorkeling & swimming.

Anse Lazio is a stunning beach located on the northwest coast of Praslin, which is the second-largest island in the Seychelles. It's renowned for its pristine white sand, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and lush surrounding vegetation. Anse Lazio is often ranked among the world's top beaches due to its natural beauty and excellent swimming and snorkeling opportunities. It's a popular destination for tourists seeking relaxation and breathtaking scenery in the Seychelles.

Beautiful beach with white sand 🏝️ Great for snorkeling 🤿 🐠 Perfect water temperature 👌🏻

Beautiful beach with crystal clear waters.We even saw a stingray .Car park is for 100SCR.

One of the best beaches ever. There is a lot of space, it contains several separate beaches, and it’s interesting to explore them all. I enjoyed swimming here, but I won’t recommend to take sunbathing as the UV light is very high.

Very nice walk in the jungle, feels like Jurassic Park. The trail is very easy, it is not as much hiking as a walk through a very interesting forest. Recommend the longer 2-3 hour trail because you won't be bothered by the big groups just stopping in the middle of the path being loud. I think a guide would provide valuable information but we went on our own and managed to find most of the objectives, the black parrot etc.

We bought the combo ticket Vallée de Mai & Fond Ferdinand. You can visit each reservation in different days. We enjoyed both. Vallée de Mai is an easy walk, I think you can learn more things if you choose to take a guide. However, we like to enjoy the ride alone. On the other hand, Fond Ferdinand is more suitable to go without guide. You have quite a hike with a wonderful view at the end. Bonus, you can spend time with the giant tortoises. We preferred more Fond Ferdinand, but both experiences have been great.

Really worth a visit. It is really special walking underneath these giants and meeting the local snails, frogs and birds. This is a good activity for a rainy day, as the canopy is so dense, we stayed drie underneath. The paths are well maintained and easy to follow. The gift shop is nice and the toliets are clean. They have a nice little café, but check what they can prepare for you before you order, as they did have a few things that were out of stock on the day that we were there. I would also recommend going early - it gets really busy with large tour groups later in the morning / around lunch time.

First of all: it’s beautiful! But here some useful information. After checking our temperature you will be asked to walk wit a guide for 150-200 rupee in English of French. After declining that she told us we don’t see the black parrot if we don’t be guided: newsflash! We’ve seen a lot of them! Just listening for the call and falling berries and you will see the parrot. It’s is really easy to walk the long (2KM) route. We did it with stopping and making photos in 1 hour. It’s a clean and paved park for a nice morning walk!

This is the most incredible jungles in Seychelles, exciting and breathtaking. Giant palms and local coconuts. The hiking path is not hard at all even from 4 yo child. Everywhere you can find a bench to rest if requires. We were lucky to notice a black parrot, several local birds, a hedgehog and giant nails. In the middle of July it's quite fresh weather, better to put on a hoody. are interesting

Beautiful place with plenty of endemic trees. Great to finally see the coco de mer. We did spend 90min going along the circular path. Managed to see the black parrot. The fee is 450 Rupees (it is expensive but going to a good cause)

We went to the park today in the morning, right after it opened. The entrance fee was 450 rupees per person. At the entrance, several tour guides offered us their services for different prices (1000 rupees for 2 people, and another 40 euros for two people). The park was beautiful and we were lucky enough to see black parrots. There are some spiders in the park. Wonderful experience.

We arrived with a rented car, parked in the adjacent parking lot, paid an entrance fee and chose to take a guide plus 150 rupees per person, a choice that turned out to be very correct. Our guide was called Albert, a guy with the joy of life and the ability to convey information in a light and fun way, who is in his company for about two hours, the place is shady and pleasant to stay with and Albert's explanations were very enjoyable.

Had a short tour of the forest for about 30-45 minutes. The tour was part of a longer 1 day excursion so time was short. Our guide was very good and we got a good insight into the forest and particularly the Coco de Mer trees. The walk is very easy and even though it was a hot day the forest canopy provides good shade. Take plenty of bug repellent, you will need it.

The tropical rainforest feels like stepping into jurassic park. Palm leafs of 4-5m which are perfect to shelter under for the tropical rain (we had that day).

It's really worth visiting. It is very atmospheric, especially in the rain. There are a number of trails through the Palm forest from where you can see the coco de mer palms.

Age old palmtrees, tropical heat and local guides available. Praslin wildlife visible, easy to walk on solid paths.

Ancient forest of Coco de Mer. The biggest palm or coconut in the world. This is a place to visit in the island. We came here on day trip from Mahe.

Nice place to visit if you want to see the native palm trees with the famous huge melon sized coconuts. If you are lucky you may spot some creatures like black parrot, tenrec, chameleon or golden gecko. A bit expensive for 450SCR per person. We did not want to take a guide (of course, you are told you miss a lot) but we like to explore ourselves, with as much time as we want to look around and take photos. It has taken 2-3 hours to slowly walk through all the paths.

Expensive but goes to upkeep of the heritage site! Beautiful walk through the jungle with a chance to see the iconic Coco de Mar trees and local wildlife. Very cool stop!

A very unique place and an awesome experience. Highly recommended to take a guided tour in the park. The story is very interesting and fun!

It's too expensive for what it is. We tooked around 1 hour and half to finish the long way, and we didn't find much apart from the coco de mer. 450 scr without guide. Little bit disappointing.

Beautiful jungle, definitely worth "one" visit. Guides are annoying, trying to tell you you're incapable of doing the walking tour alone. A lot of staff just doing nothing, I am not surprised about the high entrance fee. The unfriendly cashier on 03.04.2024 definitely chose the wrong job. All the others were friendly. 5/5 for the scenery, 1/5 for everything else.

Worthless especially if you're an Indian as you would have visited tropical places such as Kerala etc. This offers no unique views besides the local fruit which you'll see enough of. Better head to the amazingly beautiful beaches that this island offers which we thoroughly enjoyed

This small island is home to many giant tortoises, as well as beautiful beaches and hiking trails. On Curieuse, one can encounter giant tortoises (also known as Aldabra Tortoise) in their natural environment. There is a separate entry fee to this island, which was included in the tour package. The Geoli Charters tour dropped us at one end of the island and picked us up at the other end. At the starting as well at the end point, well arranged BBQ spots to self-cater were available. One can take a quick shower at the starting point before embarking on the trail. The trail though of moderate difficulty, feels relatively long on an afternoon. The best part of the trail is the boardwalk through mangrove swamps. Plenty of giant tortoises at the start and end spots. White sandy beach at the end where we are picked up by the tour boat, was a welcoming sight.

Nice Island and hike

Must go to take a glance at the ecosystem of the island. Trail hiking at the National Park can offer a picturesque view of the sea. Turtoises are friendly and kind. Some of them love humans. 🐢

Money really spent on nothing. We saw four Turtles and an empty shell. We walked around the island where there was nothing but trees and crabs and then a long wait for dinner that took up half a plate. Then a long wait for a short dive. We listened to everyone serving us about their family tragedies, and of course everyone expects a tip. There were no extras for dinner. Big money for nothing. You can see the same turtles on La Digue by going to the Anse Source d'Argent beach for a few times less money. On the beaches around the island we saw two sharks and then there was diving because these sharks are supposedly harmless?? It's not true. There have been accidents with them, but the creoles don't talk about it. We really regret that we didn't rent a boat instead of this expensive, boring and overrated trip. We could go around the islands and dive longer.

Curieuse Island or the Turtle Island. It is closer to the north coast of the island of Praslin.  It was a wet landing here at Curieuse Island as motor boats will drop you till the shallow waters of the beach and not upto the land. Curieuse Island is a protected reserve and has a very high landing fee per visitor – About 800 Seychelles Rupees/ Person. The area is declared as Curieuse Marine National Park to protect the turtles and sea life. The island has mostly rocky beaches and serves as a nesting ground for Aldabra Giant Tortoises. We landed at the Ranger's Station, which as per the caretaker, is home to about 250 Aldabra Giant Tortoises. They also rear the young ones under protected environment. We saw a lot of tortoises roaming freely around the park. There is a small beachside restaurant also, and one can find some tortoises lazying around there too. It was a great afternoon spent admiring these lazy and beautiful creatures. The park has a trail which leads you to the Doctor’s house and its beach ie at Anse St. Joseph. Its a very beautiful beach by the way...you can easily spend some hours here. Along the trail enroute to Anse St. Joseph beach from ranger station, we saw some Coco- de –Mer trees and giant takamaka trees as well.

Must see spot in Seychelles 🇸🇨 It was an amazing full-day excursion from Praslin. Giant tortoises are adorable. Mangrove forest is good too, but please do not go to Doctor’s House it's not worth it. The trail is about 2.5km one way through the forest and rocks. The local museum is just a few roll-ups with the text from Wikipedia. You can skip this spot and spend more time with the tortoises.

Highlight of our trip! Sooo many tortoises 🐢 🐢🐢🐢 and they were so cute! Then a 40minutes hike to reach to the other side of the island where it is better to swim and it was stunning!

It's a beautiful island in the middle of Seychelles. We visited here as a part of the Cousin, Curieuse and St. Pierre package with Sagittarius Taxi Boat Excursions. The place is stunning as it gets. We finished lunch and did a 40 minute hike which got us walking through some mangrove vegetation over wooden bridges and finally got to the other end of the island and fed some tortoises as well.

Good for small walking trails on hills, Can see giant turtle 🐢 in natural habitat roaming around.

Beautiful island. U can't spand the night, only turtles can. Must see's are the dokters house and the turtle farm

One of the best. In May there were pretty big waves and strong sea currents, but it is a spectacular view. 25 min away from the parking place, you have to ask to Lemuria resort in order to pass through their resort.

One of the best beaches in Seychelles. Powder white sand, turquoise awesome water and some fishes at the left side of the beach where the rocks are. If you are not coming here by boat or hiking from anse lazio you need to send an email to Constance Lemuria in order to let them know on which day you are planing the visit, how many people and the hotel that you are checked in.

A stunning beach in the Seychelles. We’ll worth heading too. If you go via the hotel you will need to ring and book (no payment) they just don’t allow too many people walking through the resort. If you take the bus get off at the 2nd to last stop. If you want to hike there then get off at the last stop. We didn’t do the hike as it’s an hour and you need proper shoes. The walk through the hotel is super easy and you go their their beautiful golf course. We loved this beach and can totally recommend it. There isn’t a lot of shade here compared to Lazio so just keep that in mind.

The beach is simply breathtaking. It's a 15 minutes walk from the hotel entrance but absolutely worth it ! Personally think best beach on Praslin, take some snacks and drinks with you !

One of the most beautiful spots in the island. At 9 the beach is almost desert.

Great beach. Must visit. Very high current but pristine beauty, no shingles, soft and white sand, no rocks, no corals. You enter through the the Constance Lemuria Hotel with their prior permission. Its a well paved path (being part of their golf course) till the beach. Its a good 1.7 km walk from where you park your car / entry gate and the beach with high inclines going up and down. Amazingly beautiful beach. Must visit. Sharing some pictures too

For me the most beautifull beach in the Island. Park in front of lemuria resort. You Have to walk through beautifull golf corse. You need to fill some forme at the gate of lemuria resort.

The beach is simply breathtaking. The turquoise water and white sand create a mesmerizing scene. The untouched beach, surrounded by cliffs and trees, adds an element of privacy. Apart from one stall, there's no food or drinks available, so it's recommended to bring your own. Additionally, the entrance is through a hotel, and the walk within the hotel to the beach takes about half an hour.

Very lovely and gorgeous beach, with beautiful white sand and crystal clear water. When we visited there were some waves, but it was really good for swimming and lying around. On the way here you need to go through the hotel’s golf course, and you need to call a hotel a day before to register for a visit. The walk is very light, 15 mins through the golf courses.

Secluded, beautiful beach. However, it takes a lot of walk to reach the beach, either through Constance Lemuria resort or a trail from Anse Lazio. The shortcut through the resort isn't short enough as thought so. One needs to go through uphill and downhill adjoining the golf course. Is worth the experience.

It's a must on Praslin!!! Our favourite beach on this beautiful island. Perfect white sand, big waves, cristal blue water, shadow and all that you dream for a paradise beach 😍 To get here, make a call to Constance Lemuria to announce the visit, than you have to cross their golf field (super 20 minutes walk). Is worth it!

A nice beach, but is it worth the uphill walk? This is a very nice beach with very clear water. It’s an easy walk from one end to the other, and there are lots of trees for shade. You can snorkel there, and I saw quite a few colourful, tropical fish and some small schools of others, and a small turtle. You need to watch the fairly strong currents though, if you get too far out from the rocks, and there is very little coral or undersea flora to see. There are limited lounges to hire, and they only take cash. There are two small bars there, and they also sell fruit platters. It is a long, very steep, uphill and downhill walk from the car park to the beach. It is hard work on a hot day. Some people walked faster than us, but many others like us found it hard work, and it took 40 minutes one way. Those who claim it is a ten-minute walk clearly didn’t check the time properly. We live in a country with some of the best beaches in the world, and we have seen many different kinds around the world, but is this in the top ten? I think the claim is exaggerated; especially when you take the long, steep walk into account. I’ve seen it and it was nice, but I would not return, because of the walk. I think Anse Lazio is equally as nice, and the snorkelling is much better. I saw just as many beautiful fish and a turtle, but there is also a lot more coral growth there; many beautiful new pinkish pieces are clearly surviving well, but there were many varieties of other types there also.

Almost the prettiest beach in Seychelles. It is worth renting transparent kayaks then you can take photos from the water

A little piece of paradise. We visited Anse Georgette 4 times in 10 days, twice "regularly" (by booking with the Lemouria resort), once by a boat and once by the trail from Anse Lazio (intense, but recommended). The beach is absolutely stunning, with powder-like sand and clear water, but mostly strong waves. Still perfectly safe even for children. The only possible downside is that this is a wrong beach for snorkeling (nothing to see). Bring your own food and drinks, as there is nothing to buy here but a mixed fruit plate (great, though) served on a palm leaf by two friendly local guys.

Not the best beach in Praslin, bit of seaweed April/May, busy as well. The sand feels rock solid and not much shade around. Also loud music from the restaurants that are near beach. Plenty supermarkets and take way located walking distance which is a plus.

Beach is safe to swim. Most of the time the beach is calm. Soft sand. There are hotels/guesthouses nearby and the place is safe overall and kids friendly. During weekends the Beach will be also crowded with locals.

Beautiful water, white sand, near restaurants and stores. Long Beach perfect for walking. Not as good swimming as other beaches but beautiful.

Very shallow sea full of stingrays, not recommend for swimming. Boring place, you can only walk along or spending time in too much expensive restaurants.

Nice beach, depending on wind and weather color of water may differs, some sea grass might be on sand, but no drama for swimming

Amazing beach with white sand and small palm trees to shade you. No amenities in place

Much better than many of the famous sey beaches! Amazing white sand, palm trees, crystal water safe to step in without swimming shoes, no dangerous currents (August). Is like putting your self inside a cart postal, only this is for real!

Very nice beach. Amazing blue water and the sand is soft and lovely. The beach had little to no debris on it so could walk barefoot quite easily. When entering the water there was some Corel and shells for a small portion which had to be careful off but once you get past that.. which was quite small.. it was fine. Most people wouldn't need water shoes. Went in July and beach was super quiet

Soft sand, very calm and tranquil sea water. Surrounded by many resorts, it’s very safe to swim and walk around.

Horrible horrible horrible! Water not seen trough worse than a 3rd class lake. You cant even swim safely because of stingrays, and you cant safely sit on a sand either because of sandflies!!! This was our first and last visit. Avoid this place and rather stay on La Digue or Mahe where beaches were spectacular!

A lovely long beach, good for swimming and relaxing. We came here after Anse Lazio which had a rough day - high and strong waves, not good for swimming. So on our way back we decided to stop by since we noticed the calm sea. And loved it. The sea was great for swimming, with dreamy blue color and not so strong waves. We were also lucky unlike other visitors based on the comments - we didn’t see any rays or baby sharks. A lit of debris, but not too much. Overall the beach is amazing to lay back, relax, enjoy the sun and the dreamy blue color of the sea. Since it’s a very long beach it’s not so crowded, so you can easily find your peace, or enjoy a long swim.

A long beach, worth the visit. We spent around 45 minutes, most of the time walking. Decent sand and is picturesque. We walked quite a distance in search of the famous set of bent palm trees found right in front of “Galerie Passerose”, seen as a great spot to take some tropical vacation photos. Though we found one, was crowded with locals and there wasn't enough space to take photos.

Beautiful beach with very nice water and waves! However the paradisiaque landscape is full of sandfly in the sand! Be careful of these insects they can transform your vacation into a living hell the following days after they bite you 😕 They are especially active after rain!

Very beautiful beach. Wide and quiet. Blue water.
