Anse Forbans

Anse Forbans is the place to be if you want to unwind. This beach is great for families, romantics, and people wishing to relax due to its shallow, peaceful, and vivid turquoise sea. Swimming and sunbathing are the most popular activities, although many people also enjoy snorkeling and fishing in the tranquil water. Anse Forbans, on Mahé's southeast coast, has attracted beach hotels such as the four-star Doubletree by Hilton Seychelles - Allamanda Resort and Spa. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing because it means you'll be able to locate restaurants, lodging, and water activities close by. Despite its close proximity to hotels, this beach is never overcrowded. In fact, you may have it almost entirely to yourself.

Insider's Tip: Large granite boulders have been used by nature to partition this tranquil bay into three smaller pieces of beach. During low tide, you can look for sea creatures in the natural pools or swim and snorkel in the lagoon formed by an offshore reef.
