Grand Anse, La Digue
Grand Anse beach, located on the southeast coast of La Digue island in Seychelles, is often referred to as the 'wild beach' for a number of reasons. The sea here runs deep very quickly and you can get caught unawares. Grand Anse is the longest beach in La Digue. The sea waters may run deep, and the currents are also very strong, but the striking natural beauty more than makes up for these shortcomings. The golden sands are stunning and make you want to relax and soak up the sun all day. The scenery around is mesmerising, and since the beach is not crowded, it gives visitors an opportunity to explore it at their own leisure.
The coral reef at Grand Anse offers no protection while the offshore currents during the southeast monsoon are very strong too. These factors make swimming rather dangerous. Compared to the other beaches of Seychelles, Grand Anse has fewer visitors and is often empty. However, the long stretches of sand and the compatible conditions for surfing here are the redemptions for Grand Anse beach.
