Interesting facts about the ANSE LA MOUCHE:

Anse à la Mouche is a large, open beach, southwest of Mahé, the largest island of the Seychelles. Unlike the many secluded beaches in the Seychelles, there are few visitors here. With a beach length of about 1.5 kilometres, you are guaranteed to always find a secluded area to relax in the sand or under one of the many takamaka trees.

The beach is easy to reach by bus or car thanks to the adjacent road. There are several parking lots along the road and the bus stop is also nearby. Like all beaches in Seychelles, Anse à la Mouche is public and therefore accessible to everyone.

As a bay, Anse à la Mouche is characterized by a very shallow and calm sea, which makes it ideal for snorkeling and even for inexperienced swimmers or children as long as they stay close to the shore. On the beach there are often fishermen and occasionally windsurfers or kite surfers. Besides some small holiday homes, there are also some restaurants and shops nearby, which makes Anse à la Mouche ideal for a day at the beach.

Located on the west coast, Anse la Mouche offers a magnificent view of breathtaking sunsets that often turn the sky into a colourful spectacle. For this reason, this beach is also a popular subject for photographers. The half-height wall between the street and the beach invites you to linger and if you like, you can have a pleasant chat with the locals who also sit there from time to time and relax.
