Latest reviews on Seychelles's beaches

Anse Takamaka Beach
10 Lena Novotná

When we visited this beach in the middle of November, it was absolutely ideal. The waves were calm, the water was a stunning shade of blue, and there were hardly any other people around. If you arrive in the morning, you'll have the beach all to yourself. It was definitely one of the most beautiful beaches we experienced in Seychelles.

Anse Takamaka Beach
10 Elena Zolotova

The ocean is clean, allowing for safe swimming.

D'offay Road Beach
10 Alyssa Johnson

We live in London and have friends who reside on the island of Mahé. However, whenever we visit them, we always choose this amazing residence. This is our second time staying at Villa Luana Yuna, and we have noticed that there are always pleasant surprises. The garden is meticulously cared for, despite the vastness of the property. Every plant and palm tree is perfectly maintained. It's delightful to be able to enjoy the coconuts that fall in the garden. Additionally, it's wonderful to simply cross the road and be at the beach, especially during low tide when you can take a walk to the coral reef. The area is residential and peaceful, yet conveniently located near all the necessary amenities such as restaurants, markets, and a craft village. Stanley, the caretaker, prepared an excellent barbecue and a traditional Creole dinner for us. Luana, the owner, assisted us in renting a car at a great price, which we highly recommend using to explore the island, although there is a bus stop right in front of the villas. Most importantly, we want to express our gratitude for the numerous tips that enhanced our second experience with you. We will definitely return to visit because we feel right at home at Villa Luana Yuna. Thank you for everything.

Anse Du Riz Beach
10 Samantha S.

This minuscule stretch of sand may appear picturesque, but don't be fooled by its size. Our group was ferried in by boat for a lunch break, but I couldn't help but feel underwhelmed. Sure, the rocks were nice to look at, but the beach itself was nothing to write home about. The only saving grace was the fact that it was a quick stop on our boat trip.

Grand Anse beach
10 Aiden Kessler

This beach is likely one of the best in the world.

Anse Marie Louise Beach
10 Sofia Martinez

Venture to the farthest edge of the sandy shores, just beyond the Anse Capucin trail, and you'll discover a beach that truly takes your breath away. This stretch of coastline is nothing short of incredible, and in our humble opinion, it stands as the most stunning beach on the entire island of Mahé.

Finding hotels in relative proximity to the beaches is usually fine. Many beaches have enough nearby accommodation, which gives good opportunities to choose the right place to stay.

Do you know how many beaches there are in Seychelles? In total there are 111 beaches and the most popular is North Island Beach.
