ANSE LASCARS

The beach of Anse Lascars on the east side of the third largest Seychelles island Silhouette can be reached via a footpath from La Passe. The sandy beach, where many shells and corals are found, is famous for the fact that behind it there are a few old graves which are thought to contain thirty Arab sailors who were shipwrecked here with their dhow long before the island was settled.

The sea is deep at high tide with high waves. Swimming is possible with caution at low tide. The ground in the water is rocky and sharp, so water shoes are recommended.

At this beach, a real Robinson Crusoe feeling comes up, as one is mostly alone.
