L'UNION ESTATE
Take a step back in time and visit L'Union Estate. Take a look at a traditional copra mill with a kiln, admire the oldest specimens of tortoises or walk around the majestic plantation house framed by granite boulders in a beautifully landscaped garden, or just go for a bike ride.
The property also houses the Cemetery of the former settlers on La Digue and also one of the most untouched beaches of the Seychelles the legendary Source d'Argent one of the most photographed beaches in the world.
A large part of the L'Union Estate Park is a vanilla plantation and in the rear area there is a farm where chili, aubergines, passion fruit and much more are grown.
Furthermore there is the "Boat Yard" on the premises, here you can see how boats and ships are manufactured and repaired
