Consistently ranked among the world's most beautiful beaches, Anse Lazio stuns with powder-white sand framed by sculpted granite boulders and crystalline turquoise water. Arrive in private transfer, snorkel the reef at your leisure, and lunch at the legendary beach restaurant.
What to expect
Your private air-conditioned transfer winds through Praslin's lush interior before descending to Anse Lazio's breathtaking crescent bay. Snorkel gear is on hand to explore the granite reef teeming with parrotfish, surgeonfish and hawksbill turtles. The beach's famous cliff-top restaurant, Bonbon Plume, serves freshly grilled Creole fish and chilled Seybrew at the water's edge. Afterwards, simply sink into the impossibly soft sand under swaying casuarina trees with the Indian Ocean lapping at your feet.
Good to know
Anse Lazio is a 25-minute drive from the cruise pier at Baie Sainte Anne. All-aboard times on Praslin are typically late afternoon — a morning departure by 09:00 gives you the best light and fewest visitors. Book the private transfer in advance; Bonbon Plume restaurant has no reservations but table turnover is smooth mid-morning.
