Petite Anse is a secluded beach located to the southeast of La Digue, near Grand Anse. Although it shares similarities with its neighbor, including deep waters and a lack of coral reefs, it remains quieter and less frequented by visitors. Accessed via a short 15-minute walk from Grand Anse, the beach offers a peaceful setting perfect for sunbathing, beach games, and picnics. While swimming is not advised due to strong currents, the beach is ideal for families, with plenty of shade from trees and driftwood shelters. The nearby amenities at Grand Anse make it convenient for visitors seeking a relaxing, low-key experience.

One of the best beaches in Seychelles. Free entry through Four Seasons front gate, but you have to register your visit and you'll get a yellow wristband. You can park your car for free outside the front gate, but there's not many spots, so hope for the best. Walk down to the beach is steep, but worth it.

One of the most beautiful beaches in Seychelles, a must visit! Part of the Four Seasons resort, but free to use. No sunbeds, toilet available if dressed, great location. Food only in Four Seasons restaurant with reservation, but too pricy, so better take snacks with you from before.

The best beach at Mahe island. Turquoise water and white sand. Big stones from right and left. Waves were quite dangerous, be careful. You need to leave a car near the entrance of Four Seasons hotel. There was not enough places to park, so try to be earlier. Then you need to go down for 15 mins , the way back is tougher but possible, we were with 6 years old son.

Every sunset tells a different story of the day that has just gone by ... This beach is perfect for experiencing a gorgeous sunset on Mahe Island. There is a parking lot right at the entrance to the resort where you can leave your car and then follow a 20-30 minute walk to the beach. The differences in level are quite large, so it must be taken into account that it is necessary to have a minimum physical condition. Any effort is worth it anyway: it is one of the most beautiful beaches in the Seychelles.
