Create an itinerary including Anse Intendance
A remote spot nestled on the southwest of the island, Anse Intendance offers wild, pristine beach tranquility. Follow the mangrove-lined jungle path past the one nearby resort, to white powdered sands and corner after corner of sun-kissed seclusion. Swimming is not advised from June to September due to strong currents, although the lack of reef does attract daring surfers throughout the year. The beach has few nearby facilities, so pack a picnic and plenty of water. Plan your visit to Anse Intendance and a wealth of other attractions, well-known and undiscovered, using our Quatre Bornes day trip planner.

  • It may not be the best beach on the island, but, you’ll find Intendance Road the most scenic road on the island. Very limited bus service on bus 5A.

  • The best beach in the whole of Mahe Island. Can't define the beauty of this beach in just words. The beach line is so beautiful and picturesque. The very first impression you get as soon as you walk into the beach is a private space for yourself. A good place to snorkel and swim. Best place to get those hot bod beach pics.
  • It is a nice beach, though not our favorite. Nice bar on it. We had big waves and strong current. Some dodgy people walking around. You have to be vigilant for your belongings. Lovely sunset.
  • An absolutely fantastic beach. Easy to reach by car and plenty of parking. Strong waves, please be careful, stay close to the beach. But bathing is great fun. Sand is soft and clean. Cool beach bar with cocktails and sometimes BBQ. Reasonable prices for Seychelles. But closed for a long time over lunch.
  • Nice white sandy beach (also there are no rocks in the water). There are not so many shaded areas so be prepared. The currents can be strong, you have to pay attention. The beach is also a sea turtle nesting area, but there is some hotel construction right at the beach. 5 stars for the beach itself, but 1 star for building a hotel so close to the beach.
  • One of the best beaches on Mahe. Accessible by road with lots of parking spaces. On the south side of the beach, there is a “beach bar” and a good photo spot with boulders.
