La Digue Island - Seychelles

Seychelles:
La Digue Island

La Digue Island, discovered as recently as 1744, lies 43 kilometres from Mahe and 6 km from Praslin. A 30 minute boat ride from Praslin, La Dique is even quieter than Praslin, and quite a bit smaller. Despite its size, La Digue is probably the most photographed island in Seychelles.

The first thing visitors to La Digue appreciate is its typical tranquillity. Watch the workers peacefully going about their tasks on the plantations, take a ride on an "ox-taxi" (there are only about twenty cars on the island), or hire a mountain bike and set off to explore the paths and trails around the island.

In and around La Dique
Don't miss the picturesque Yellow House, photographed hundreds of times, and considered to be one of the most attractive in the archipelago.

For a breathtaking and unforgettable experience, go to Anse Source d'Argent in the evening, one hour before sunset, when the light is at its most attractive, and admire the charming scene lying before you: enormous pink granite boulders framing small coves covered in warm sand and shaded by coconut trees.
