Spiagge di Anse Marron

Reviewed By IamRichie - Haarlem, The Netherlands

MUST READ BEFORE GOING Never go without a guide! Why? When we walked the tour today (26-1-2020) with a guide we found a young man dead on the rocks between Anse Source D’Argent and Anse Martin (around Anse aux Cedres). The poor guy went without a guide and really unfortunately paid with his life (it seemed that he tried to walk via the high dangerous part while the safe path was via the low part). I’m so sorry for his family and loved ones and would like to send my deepest condolences to them. There are several post here at TripAdvisor which suggest you can easily do the tour yourself which is really misleading (!!!) and make people take great risks with their lives. Because of these posts I also considered going by myself as they made it seem easy but my gut feeling happily told me to go with a guide. Maybe they are experienced rock climbers (which most of us are not) and completely walked the same safe route as the guides do (which I highly doubt because of the below reasons)?! I myself am really fit and I must say that it’s not easy and a really tricky tour without proper guidance going from Grand Anse beach to Anse Marron and than further to Anse Source D’Argent. Please note the following: - You need to be fit and the safe route is very hard to be found; - the walk includes climbing through small areas below the rocks (which prevents you having to climb the dangerous upper rocks where one could easily slip) and you are walking through really dense jungle areas; - I’m 100% certain that people trying to do it themselves will not take the same safe road (meaning take a more risky road) as I really simply sometimes could not see where we would go next (and even surprised me as the more logical way to me looked differently); - you need to wear proper hiking shoes to prevent any slipping. You will also walk parts through the water (even at low tide when we went); - never go when it has rained or will be raining. It will be very slippery on the rocks. With a guide you are able to enjoy this nice experience and they take no risk at all with any of the customers. They for example don’t go when it has rained and for them the safety of their customers is o so important because an heavy injury or death will mean closure of their business and possibly even prison time. So please use this information so you can make a well informed decision on what to do. The tour itself is really nice and you see some great beaches but not worth dying for when you take excessive risks by going by yourself. Ps: 1. for clarity I’m not at all involved with any tour guides what so ever. With this post I want to prevent any more people getting hurt because saving the small amount of money is not worth it! 2. Please LIKE and share the post to bring it to the attention of as much people as possible. 3. I’m attaching some nice photos I took because the tour is nice and this post is not meant to discourage anybody from going, but I do want you to be well informed.

Copolia Trail

Reviewed By Gautamo2020 - Beau Vallon, Seychelles

One of the best view from top of the hill. Trail is well maintained, we have done Many nature trail in Seychelles and Copolia is recommended one for tourists. There is enough signages on the way, so that you will not miss the way. Avoid the trail on the rainy day mainly due to fog on the hill you will not able to see the view properly. Management charge 100 scr per tourist, Which I feel is good because they have maintained the trail very well. and for the residents it's free. We were group of 8 persons, when we reached the trail point it was raining very heavily. When rain Stop we have started out trail which is approximately 800 meter height. And we finished the trail approximately in 25 minutes. Trail is not difficult. One need to carry enough water ???? or soft drinks, as on the way is very humid. Once you reach on top, you feel the paradise. Very beautiful view. During clear weather you can see Praslin island, Ladigue island, Denis Island, Saint Anne Island and all the nearby Islands. Finally I would like to thank staff "BIGUTE FERMIE" for her help and guidence, She was very hospitable and Kind.

800m pretty much straight uphill (there are some spots where it levels out) will take you to this beautiful viewpoint. Most of the trail is shaded. There is a decent sized viewing deck at the top for your photo taking pleasure. What a view it is, greens and blues galore. I didn’t want to go back down.

Anse Major

Reviewed By JohnWennborg - Lund, Sweden

We walked here upon recommendation by the hotel staff and it was well worth the hike. Let's start with the trail. First, you need to follow the road from Bel ombre bus stop, passed La Scala Restaurant, all the way to the top. Once there you will see the sign for Anse Major Trail. It is quite a hike in the matter that it requires good shoes and lots of water. The actual hike is well marked and easy enough to follow but the heat on a sunny day is tough so make sure to bring lots of water. When we were here in January of 2019 they were building new water supply lines, so sometimes the scenery suffers the consequences of the build but overall it is still a nice walk with beautiful scenery, and the build may have made the trail a little safer from what we have read before. Don't miss the little trail at the very beginning of the trail, after the stairs that gives you a splendid view of the entire Beau Vallon/Bel Ombre bay area as well as Silhouette Island from the cliffs. The hike took us about an hour and fifteen each way. The hike ends at the Anse Major beaches (there are two) and on the way down there is a roofed platform that is perfect for taking nice pictures, once you get there you only have a short 10 minutes walk through the forest until you arrive. The first beach is a little smaller than the second one but offers better shade. Apparently, there is a Taxi boat (Happiness) that frequently visits the beaches (the second one, the larger) but at the time that we visited the sea was too choppy and the taxi boat did not show up, so prepare to walk back as well. The beaches are very nice but the water is full of sharp reefs so if the waves are big and the tide is low it is quite dangerous to enter. Due to the rough sea, we did not get a chance to snorkel but we hear from everyone that it is very very nice along the edges of the small bay. Perhaps next time for us. Please note that there is nothing at the beaches so bring everything you need but as mentioned earlier the reward at the end of the trail is well worth the hike!
