    One of the best beaches I've been to!
    A fantastic beach! Great sand with just enough waves to have some fun. Clear water with snorkeling at either end. Insiders note! Go past the pay parking at the beginning of the beach road and drive down the beach to the end of the road. There you can park in a guarded parking lot for 100 SR. With that you get a 100 SR coupon to eat at the Le Chevalier restaurant. They have great food and service. You also get free WIFI and a shower. This greatly extends the comfort of your stay

    Beautiful Anse Lazio
    One of the best beach I have ever seen. Beautiful and calm place to stres relief. Plenty of shaded and sunny places help you to find best holiday time Easy and quick access - by bus line 61 or 62 and cab (quite a bit more expensive, but the walk uphill then goes away — bus costs you 10 SCR only no matter from). If you come in a rental car there is a large paid parking lot down there (100 SCR I think) Entrance is free. There is a snoorking area. There was a fatality with a shark several years ago, but this can happen anywhere. Beware of currents that pull out into the water but still safe. For families with children it is ideal, as it is shallow for a long time The beach itself is divided into several sections separated by rocks. There is something for everyone

    Beautiful Beach.
    Although the sea was VERY rough when we were there, we still enjoyed this beach, lots of cover from the sun. SR100 parking charge if you drive. Great surroundings and plenty of room. Park at the hotel/restaurant right on the beach, you pay your SR100 & get free use of shower and WiFi also the money will also be used towards a meal if you so choose.

    So beautiful
    Very lovely beach however to get there it's bit challenging if you have a kid. I recommend to rent vehicle or taxi as walking up this hill it's crazy tiring. The view on the beach made you feel it's worth it tho. Water very clear, great for snorkeling

    Beach
    I never saw a place like this!! The sea is clean and light blue colored. There is a parking area (7 euros) with a voucher that you could use in some restaurants ( but no for drink). We decided in any case to go in other restaurants, with see view ( the quality of the food in general is low, but not a lot of options there). I advice to go with the private car. From the bus station, the beach is little bit far and with heavy downhill. In any case it is a experience that has to be done.

    Amazing beach Vistas
    We were pretty early and got to park for SCR 100. You can also drive further down and park at a restaurant parking for the same amount right by the beach. They also let you use their shower and toilets for the amount you pay. The beach itself is stunning and provides shade to laze around when the sun gets high. Did not notice any paid activities around the area, though I noticed a few people snorkeling. We tried and did hike up halfway to Anse Georgette a beach on the other side. The trail is not too well marked, but you can figure it out. Gave up after some time and decided to return and relax on the beach. It's pretty north of the island and you can reach there by taxi or a rented vehicle. Guess the us stops way below, and you have a good 15-minute walk from the stop. Try to get there early to enjoy the serenity. There are a couple of good restaurants and a bar on the beach as well . A must visit when in Praslin.

Stunning beach, certainly the most beautiful on all of Praslin. Transparent water and then with a thousand shades of light blue and blue.
Seabed gradually drops.
You can also admire various fish and with a bit of luck even some rays. I recommend arriving early enough to enjoy the semi-empty beach and not parking at the first paid car park, but continuing along the road and going to the last restaurant there. In fact, there you will be asked for the same amount as at the paid car park (100 rupees if I'm not mistaken) with the difference that you will be issued a voucher of the same value that can be spent in the restaurant.

This was our favourite beach on the island. Crystal clear water, with catamarans parked up in the bay. You can also snorkel between the rocks and see some pretty fish 🐠 No big hotels reserving a section of the beach for sun loungers. Buy fresh coconuts 🥥 from the guys on the beach 30-50sr. There is a restaurant just off the beach but it is currently closed for refurbishment, so bring your own snacks.

Arguably one of the most beautiful beaches in the world means that it is also one of the busiest on the island. Located at the end of the road, there are some parking spaces before the beach, or you can press on to one of the lodges or food establishments. There are plenty of spaces on the beach in the sun and in the shade. As a popular beach, there are warnings about possessions, so all should keep an eye on their stuff. Like any beach, please take your garbage with you when you leave. If you stay on the beach long enough, you will see van full of tourists come and go.

The most famous beach in Praslin but perhaps not the most beautiful and therefore very touristy. The clear water, the fine sand, the waves, some granite boulders and the shade of the palm trees make it a beautiful postcard and a bath is mandatory. Behind a beach residence, some beach bars, two restaurants, a gift shop that incredibly does not accept credit cards and a paid parking lot.

Fine sandy,
Clean beach with some shady areas to lie down. Loungers can be rented. If you pay for the parking space at the beginning (100SCR) you can use the toilet and shower for free. However, no one checked during our stay. Bar and restaurant right on the beach. There is also a small souvenir shop about 50 meters away that also sells drinks (card payment often broken).
The water is wonderfully cool and refreshing and slopes steeply. Strong waves. Therefore it was not possible to go into the water with our daughter (7 months) in our arms.
While snorkeling we saw lots of fish and a ray.
Of course there were also lots of tourists on this famous beach.
The sunset was very beautiful in the evening and there was a nice
atmosphere on the beach. Unfortunately the view was blocked by some tourist boats that were in the bay.

The most famous (but in my opinion not the most beautiful) beach on Praslin. Long white beach, calm sea and classic granite rocks at the ends. If you have a car you can get within a few hundred meters of the beach (a car park for 100 Rupees has been available for a few years!). If you take the bus you will have to travel an additional 2 kilometres.

Our driver, dropped us within meters of the beach. It’s as you have imagined, fine white sandy beach, granite boulders, palms hugging the shores, plenty of space to find a shady spot. When we were there, the waves where fairly high and strong, so not ideal for snorkeling, in fact very few bathers snorkeled. There are 1 or 2 unsavory characters, so watch your belongings. I personally found the popularity of this beach over rated. My personal favorite for Seychelles is Carana beach on Mahe.
Across the sand road, where the beach starts, there is a restaurant, see my other review for Le Chevaliers Bay Restaurant.
