Great beach but find the entry point where there are no rocks otherwise it is very hard to enter and get out without getting hurt by the rocks

Nestled amidst the lush greenery of Seychelles lies the Takamaka Rum Distillery, a gem that beckons to travelers and rum enthusiasts alike. My visit to this iconic destination was nothing short of extraordinary, with the rum tasting session standing out as the undisputed highlight of the tour. The journey began with a warm welcome at the distillery, where the atmosphere was infused with the enticing aroma of sugarcane and tropical spices. Guided by passionate and knowledgeable staff, we were taken through the rich history of Takamaka Rum. The story of its origins, rooted in the traditions of Seychelles, provided a deeper appreciation of the craft behind each bottle. The distillation process was another fascinating aspect of the tour. Observing the intricate blending techniques and the care that goes into aging the rum in oak barrels was captivating. It became evident that Takamaka is more than just a drink—it's a labor of love, craftsmanship, and heritage. The pinnacle of the experience, however, was the rum tasting session. Presented with nine distinct rums, we embarked on a sensory adventure that delighted the palate. Each rum told its own story, from the subtle, smooth flavors of the classic Takamaka White Rum to the bold, spiced notes of the flagship St. André. The servings were impressively generous, allowing ample time to savor and appreciate the nuances of each variety. Among the rums I tasted, the Takamaka Zenn was a personal favorite. Its rich, caramel undertones paired perfectly with the tropical climate, leaving a lasting impression. The experience was not just about the flavors; it was about the ambiance, the camaraderie among fellow visitors, and the genuine passion of the staff that elevated the tasting to an unforgettable event. By the end of the tour, I left the distillery with a deeper appreciation for Takamaka Rum and a few bottles to bring home. This experience is a must for anyone visiting Seychelles. It’s not just about tasting exceptional rums; it's about immersing oneself in the spirit of Seychelles itself. Truly, the Takamaka Rum Distillery offers an experience that is not only worthy but unforgettable.

Very nice beach, also quite clean compared to some of the others. We visited at the end of July and it was pretty good for swimming a lot of underwater rocks and reefs for snorkelling.

Glorious classic arc of sand with nice surf, shelves out so safe to go in if you're careful. Quite a lot of shade. Plenty of parking. High tide is quite high up the beach. Sun sets bang in the middle of the bay.
