This is one of the best beaches in Mahé to spend some time in. This is one of those beaches not recommended for swimming due to strong waves, but you can admire the beauty of the place by just relaxing on the beach. It is normally not very crowded and you can have some good time for yourself here.

It’s a quiet, clean spot perfect for relaxing away from the crowds. There’s not much shaded areas. Our son had so much fun chasing the many crabs along the shore! On the left side of the beach, we were excited to spot a couple of big turtles, which was a nice surprise. We didn’t get to see much marine life while snorkeling, just a few fish here and there, but the overall experience was still very enjoyable.
One of the best beaches on Mahe. We visited this beach in April, it was fullmoon. The sea was heavy with big and strong waves. The water wasn' t clear and nice. But the beach is really pretty!
Nestled amidst the lush greenery of Seychelles lies the Takamaka Rum Distillery, a gem that beckons to travelers and rum enthusiasts alike. My visit to this iconic destination was nothing short of extraordinary, with the rum tasting session standing out as the undisputed highlight of the tour. The journey began with a warm welcome at the distillery, where the atmosphere was infused with the enticing aroma of sugarcane and tropical spices. Guided by passionate and knowledgeable staff, we were taken through the rich history of Takamaka Rum. The story of its origins, rooted in the traditions of Seychelles, provided a deeper appreciation of the craft behind each bottle. The distillation process was another fascinating aspect of the tour. Observing the intricate blending techniques and the care that goes into aging the rum in oak barrels was captivating. It became evident that Takamaka is more than just a drink—it's a labor of love, craftsmanship, and heritage. The pinnacle of the experience, however, was the rum tasting session. Presented with nine distinct rums, we embarked on a sensory adventure that delighted the palate. Each rum told its own story, from the subtle, smooth flavors of the classic Takamaka White Rum to the bold, spiced notes of the flagship St. André. The servings were impressively generous, allowing ample time to savor and appreciate the nuances of each variety. Among the rums I tasted, the Takamaka Zenn was a personal favorite. Its rich, caramel undertones paired perfectly with the tropical climate, leaving a lasting impression. The experience was not just about the flavors; it was about the ambiance, the camaraderie among fellow visitors, and the genuine passion of the staff that elevated the tasting to an unforgettable event. By the end of the tour, I left the distillery with a deeper appreciation for Takamaka Rum and a few bottles to bring home. This experience is a must for anyone visiting Seychelles. It’s not just about tasting exceptional rums; it's about immersing oneself in the spirit of Seychelles itself. Truly, the Takamaka Rum Distillery offers an experience that is not only worthy but unforgettable.
Beautiful beach but be aware of the big rocks when you enter the water.
