La Passe, La Digue

La Digue is a fair bit smaller than Mahé. If you were so inclined, you could walk all the way around it within a day.

The island has some 18 beaches of which Anse Source d'Argent is probably the best-known one while Grand Anse is cited as the most beautiful.

We went to Anse Severe on a quiet morning. It was about a kilometer from where we stayed. Said hello to the resident tortoise and enjoyed the peace and quiet.



Veuve Nature Reserve is located on La Digue, which is home to the rare and endemic Seychelles Paradise Flycatcher. We weren't lucky enough to spot one sadly.

I must mention our accommodation as I was more excited about it than the entire journey to the Seychelles. We stayed at The Blue House for Dog Lovers. You HAVE TO be a dog lover to stay here. All the dogs are friendly and can be boisterous, which non-dog lovers may not tolerate but for those who do, it's a lovely experience. The house is a lovely wooden open and airy space with seating overlooking the large garden where you can watch and listen to birds in the trees.
