Anse Source d’Argent
Granite boulders define the shoreline at Anse Source d’Argent. Use one rock as a foreground anchor and leave room for the sea. Access is through L’Union Estate, so check its current arrangements.
Search Google MapsL’Union Estate
L’Union Estate preserves elements of the island’s plantation history. Look for the contrast between the historic estate buildings and the surrounding vegetation, and follow the site’s visitor and photography rules.
Search Google MapsGrand Anse
Grand Anse gives you a broad coastal subject on La Digue. Compose a horizontal view with a strip of sand in front and the shore behind. Check current sea and weather conditions rather than assuming the water is safe.
Search Google MapsPetite Anse
Petite Anse lies on the coastal route beyond Grand Anse. Frame the curve of the bay with its shoreline in the foreground. An older Seychelles parks leaflet lists the Grand Anse to Petite Anse trail as unofficial and strongly recommends a licensed guide for unofficial trails. Ask locally about current trail conditions and access.

Anse Cocos is a bay on La Digue’s eastern side. Use the shore and vegetation as layers in a wide photograph. An older Seychelles parks leaflet lists the route as unofficial and strongly recommends a licensed guide for unofficial trails. Ask locally about the current route and conditions before setting out.
