Top 10 attractions in La Digue
Praslin
Praslin is the second-largest island in Seychelles. The entire island is composed of granite and covered by well-preserved tropical primeval forests, with fine white sandy beaches and azure waters stretching between massive granite boulders. The island's interior hides Seychelles' signature view—Vallée de Mai. This approx. 20-hectare primeval palm forest is listed as a World Natural Heritage site and is the native habitat of the Seychelles' national treasure, the coco de mer; wild coco de mer palms grow almost exclusively here. The coco de mer is dioecious with peculiar fruits that can weigh up to 30 kg when mature, making them the largest seeds in the plant kingdom. The forest is also home to the black parrot, which can be seen almost exclusively on Praslin; despite the name "black," its feathers are actually closer to dark brown. The island's coast presents a different face: Anse Lazio, famous for its fine, soft white sand and rounded granite boulders at the bay's entrance, is suitable for swimming and snorkeling. If you have extra time, you can also island-hop from the pier to nearbyCurieuse Islandto get up close with the free-roaming Aldabra giant tortoises.Baie Sainte Anne · 10.9 km from La Digue
Anse Source d'Argent
Anse Source d'Argent, also known as Silver Source Beach, is reached by following a tree-lined path through the Union Farm estate, giving it a tucked-away, secret feel. The beach's signature scene is the large, smooth granite boulders scattered across the fine white sand, which takes on a faint pink hue in the sunlight and contrasts with the clear, greenish-blue shallows. The outer edge of the beach is ringed by coral reefs, which keep the open-sea waves out, leaving the water shallow and calm. At low tide the water level is very low, making it ideal for wading and finding photo angles. At high tide the water becomes deep enough for swimming and snorkeling, and some low-lying sand coves may be briefly submerged. Checking the tide before you go can make a big difference in your experience. Cycling is the main way to get around the island, and renting a bike to get there is very convenient. Coconut groves and boulders provide natural shade, and the boulders link a string of small sand coves—each turn reveals a new composition, so allow time to wander slowly.La Digue · 2.2 km from downtown
La Digue
La Digue is separated from Praslin by only a stretch of water and is a small island known for its laid-back atmosphere: there are almost no motor vehicles on the island, and traditionally, people got around by bicycle and ox cart. Today, renting a bicycle to slowly ride around the island along coconut-lined paths remains a classic way to experience it. La Passe on the northwest coast is the center of the island, where most of the piers, restaurants, and bicycle rental shops are concentrated. L’Union Estate Farm in the southwest is a place to visit on the island, where you can see demonstrations of traditional copra pressing for coconut oil, walk through vanilla plantations, and get up close to the massive Aldabra giant tortoises. Continuing through the farm, you will reach Anse Source d'Argent, famous for its weathered granite boulders, turquoise waters, and fine white sand; it gained fame as a filming location for the movie "Emmanuelle." Birdwatchers can head to the JRVH+3J6 to look for the rare Seychelles black paradise flycatcher, which is endemic to the Seychelles. Those with good stamina can hike to the island's highest point, Nid Aigle, which offers expansive views from the summit, taking in the entire island's coconut groves and the turquoise sea views of the surrounding islands.Seychelles · La Digue

Cote d’or Beach
Côte d'Or beach is located in the north of Praslin Island, not far from the snorkeling island of Saint-Pierre. The beach here is fine white sand, and the waves are not big, which is very suitable for swimming and playing in the water. There are also many choices of hotels and family hotels around the beach. Compared with the famous Lazio Beach, it is less crowded and quieter.Anse Volbert Village · 11.1 km from La Digue
St. Pierre Island
Saint-Pierre is a very, very small island located directly between Praslin and Curios. The small island is covered with huge rocks and reefs, some tall palm trees in the rocks, and a few small sandy beaches, and it takes about 10 minutes to circle the island. Since the surrounding water is very clear, you can come here for snorkeling, or just walk along the beach.Baie Sainte Anne · 11.9 km from La Digue

Argent Beach, once the best in the world, is so dreamy and unreal. It feels like a fairyland. I really understand why Seychelles is called the Garden of Eden on earth!

Seychelles is an archipelago country, consisting of 115 large and small islands, but the most developed and popular regular islands are: Mahe (main island), Praslin and La Digue. Generally, tour groups usually choose to stay on Mahe for the whole trip, and then take a one-day tour to Praslin and La Digue.
