Anse Royal is a long fine sandy beach. The water is shallow and you can swim there. From time to time there can also be higher waves.
This section of small rock-framed coves along the Anse Royale coast in south-east Mahé, which stretches from an area known as Fairyland ("Fairy Land") down to the Anglican church of Anse Royale, is a wonderful place for swimming and snorkelling. The best snorkelling spots are around the rocks of Fairyland and extend to the small Island just off the coast, where you can marvel at countless coral fish in bright colors.
On weekends, the locals come here for a beach barbecue with their friends, families and children.
Kafe Creole" is located in the middle of the beach and is an excellent restaurant for lunch or a cool drink on the beach lounger in front of it.
The place Anse Royal is the second biggest place of the island and has some small shops, a gas station, a bank, souvenir shops and much more.
