Anse Cocos, Beach on La Digue, Seychelles.
The curved shoreline of Anse Cocos contains white sand bordered by large granite rocks, with natural pools forming at low tide.
The beach area was part of La Digue's coconut plantations during the French colonial period in the late 18th century.
Local Seychellois families gather at Anse Cocos during weekends to prepare traditional Creole barbecues with grilled fish and coconut curry.
Reaching Anse Cocos requires a 30-minute walk from Grand Anse through a marked trail, and visitors should bring water and snacks.
Natural rock pools along the beach create protected swimming areas where colorful tropical fish gather during high tide.
