La Digue

Paradise Flycatcher (Veuve)

The slow island: ox-carts and bicycles instead of cars, the granite theatre of Anse Source d'Argent, and the Veuve Reserve where the rare paradise flycatcher still nests.

Typical experience

What a La Digue day looks like

Morning

By bicycle

Cycle the sandy village lanes to L'Union Estate — vanilla, coconuts and the old plantation at an island pace.

Midday

Veuve Reserve

A quiet walk in the Veuve Reserve for the black paradise flycatcher, then a Creole lunch near the harbour.

Afternoon

The boulders

Anse Source d'Argent between the granite boulders — shallow turquoise water, snorkelling and the most photographed beach in the ocean.

Combine La Digue with

Most guests pair La Digue with Praslin, and often add Mahé or an outer island.

Praslin

Vallée de Mai, coco de mer forest and quiet romantic beaches.

Mahé

Mountains, Victoria's market and the widest choice of hotels — the arrival island.

Bird Island

Seabird colonies, barefoot simplicity and the loudest sunrise in the ocean.
