Anse Soleil
A secluded little cove on the southwest of Mahé, surrounded by granite boulders and palm trees. A small beach restaurant serves grilled fish, and the atmosphere is relaxed.
Anse Soleil lies at the southwestern tip of Mahé in the Baie Lazare district. Steep footpaths lead down to the sea, and the small, sheltered cove is framed by huge granite boulders. The clear water is good for swimming and snorkeling. The beach's only eatery, Anse Soleil Café, is known for its Creole curries and grilled fish, and lunchtime often means a queue. Petite Anse nearby is also worth a look. There is no direct bus, so you will need a car or taxi, and parking is limited.
