Anse Lazio, Beach in Praslin Island, Seychelles
The northwestern coast of Praslin features a 600-meter stretch of white sand beach bordered by granite rocks and palm trees along turquoise waters.
The beach gained international recognition in the 1990s when global travel magazines began highlighting its natural features and water conditions for swimming.
Local fishermen maintain their traditional practices at Anse Lazio, bringing fresh catches daily to the beachside restaurants that serve Creole specialties.
Three designated parking areas connect to the beach through marked paths, with lifeguard services operating from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily.
The beach lacks a protective coral reef, creating direct contact with ocean waters that rapidly reach depths suitable for deep-sea activities.
