Mahe
The main island of SEYCHELLES ISLANDS, Mahé is one of the most beautiful islands in the world with 70 beaches with a particular character.

Anse Intendance, on the south coast, is perfectly suited to those who prefer to stay away from the crowds, although the bathing is somewhat dangerous from May to September. Caution when diving or snorkeling off Takamaka Cove and generally along the south and west coast of the island due to strong currents. To the north, you will find Baie Lazare and its amazing granite background. Anse Royale, quiet sea, easy access by bus or car, and very nice snorkeling. Anse Intendance (white sand, incredible blue sea, beware to the waves and currents). Beauvallon for the touristic side, animation and the quiet bath. North-west of Mahé: Port Glaud. Anse Major to the north east, with one hour hike: the water is very clear and snorkeling nice to do, a guard monitors the surroundings of the beach. Anse Takamaka for palm trees and safe swimming.
