The Seychelles largest and main island, Mahe is home to the capital of Victoria and about 70,000 people (almost 90% of the nation's total). Still, the island retains its idyllic beauty, with 3,000-foot mountains and scores of gorgeous beaches. Many plants, including the so-called Jellyfish Tree and several rare orchids, are unique to Mahe's shores. The Seychelles Natural History Museum, the Botanical Gardens and the Codevar Craft Centre, all in Victoria, are not to be missed.

This is definitely the most beautiful, romantic and relaxing beach to visit in the Seychelles. Park your car near the casino and take the breathtaking walk through exquisite Gardens to reach the beach which is located near the Four Seasons Hotel. Day visitors are allowed. Drinks and snacks are available at the bar and restaurant, but are pretty expensive.

The beach itself is very beautiful, you can have free parking near by and walk 1 minute though green jungles. Maybe it depends on weather, but when we visit Anse Intendanse in the beginning of June, there were big waves and sign "no swimming" you barely could come into water because flow is quite strong. But it is worth to come and watch as well as other Beaches on Seychelles.

Well maintained trail. Took me (fit senior) 53 minutes walking time.
Climbs up all the way (about 230mtres vertical).. and steps are not consistent - but reasonably well maintained.
Need hiking shoes
Take water, as high perspiration
Shaded most of the way, but need hat on top.
The viewing platform is safe.
Views all along South Island..stunning!

The road up to Copolia is very windy. It was quite rainy the first day we tried to get there, so we decided against going. We went the next day.
There is no real parking for the trail, when we went, there were around three cars parked near the start of the trail. No bathroom facilities. We did not see the map of the route before going as we parked further along the road I guess.
The trail is nice, and it can get quite steep. It took as an hour to get to the top as we got lost on the way! We went all the way to the place where there is a left arrow on the board. We turned left, however we did not realise that there is ANOTHER STEEP LEFT TURN that goes directly up!!! Instead we carried on going straight. There was an 'x' marked on the rock, telling people to stop, the 'x' was very faded so we didn't spot it. It was quite dangerous as we tried clambering over rocks, after 10 or so minutes we realised there was no safe way forward! We luckily managed to find our way back, and realised the correct route. The top of the trail is an expansive area where you have a panoramic view over the island, on top of a giant granite flat boulder.

I visited Moyenne as part of a snorkeling trip to Sainte Anne Marine National Park. We went ashore and hiked around the island. The hiking tail has wonderful beach and island views. We saw incredible flora and fauna, including giant tortoises wandering freely everywhere. The history of owners is fascinating!

The Beau Vallon beach is the most famous beach in the Seychelles. Its stunning views, clear and warm waters and available activities for diving and snorkeling enhanced with its beautiful atmosphere, wide and white sandy are the perfect place for a day of sunning and/or sea adventures. Both tourists and locals frequent the lovely atmosphere. Parking is available and free.

Nice enough beach, been twice, both times to anchor in the bay and both times it's been cloudy and wet.
The spire like Mountains behind the bay seem to attract clouds, I've never seen them without their cloudy caps.
It's certainly a pleasant place to spend a few hours.

Not much to see of structures except the remains of buildings that existed during the slave period of Seychelles. What is worth the twisting and steep highway journey to the top is the view of the valley below and the Mountains surrounding the . There are even a gazebo and a number of 3 person benches to sit on to take in the view southward across Mahe. Queen Elizabeth II was reported to have enjoyed a cup of tea from the vista point.

İt is on the south west part of the mahe island. Snorkeling is very well. There are lots of fish under the water. There is a restaurant near beach chez batista. There is a cage near chez batista in which huge tortoises are imprisoned tragicly. If only they set them free.

The Le Jardin Du Roi Spice Garden is located on the southern part of Mahe Island in the coastal Mountains. The garden has a wide variety of trees and shrubs that produce spices -cloves, cinnamon, pepper, and allspice to name a few. There are also fruit trees- bread fruit, avocado, star fruit and several others. Spices are available for purchase. Enjoy a refreshing fruit drink after the tour.
