The experience

The two best things on Praslin, in one day, with a local guide.

The morning is the Vallée de Mai. The boardwalk, the Coco de Mer, the black parrot, the prehistoric feel of the forest. The guide explains the plants, the history, the way the forest was protected from logging because a governor in the colonial era refused to cut it down. You come out of the forest and drive ten minutes down the road to Anse Lazio, often described as one of the best beaches in the world. The beach is a curve of white sand, fringed by takamaka trees, with a gentle swim and a small restaurant at either end.

The afternoon is the beach. Lunch at the restaurant, swim in the bay, walk along the sand. The tour returns you to your hotel in the late afternoon.

Why we recommend it

The combination is the right combination. Forest in the morning, beach in the afternoon. A short drive between them. Two of the most important places on Praslin, covered in a single day, with a guide who knows both.

Best forFirst-time visitors to Praslin. Anyone who wants to see the Coco de Mer and the beach in the same day. Families with children who can handle a few hours in the forest.
What to bringPick-up and drop-off at your hotel. Bring sunscreen, water, swimsuit, towel, closed shoes for the Vallée de Mai. Lunch is not included but the restaurants at Anse Lazio are good and not overpriced.
