🏖️ Anse Coco: A Stunning Beach Adventure in La Digue 🌴

Anse Coco is not just a beach; it’s an unforgettable journey and a slice of paradise 🌊✨.

🚴‍♂️ The Journey:

Begin from the La Digue ferry and take the inner road by bicycle 🚲. The ride takes 20–30 minutes and offers amazing views of charming villages 🏘️, along with exciting climbs and descents 🚴‍♀️. Reach Grand Anse, the first beach patch, where the trail truly begins. From Grand Anse, it’s a 5–10 minute walk to Anse Petite, another beautiful stop 🌴. Finally, enjoy a 20–30 minute trek through the dense forest 🌳 to reach the magnificent Anse Coco. The effort makes the destination all the more rewarding!

🌟 What Awaits You:

Majestic serenity: Anse Coco is tranquil, untouched, and breathtakingly beautiful 🏖️. Juice bar treat: If open, the juice bar serves refreshing tropical drinks 🥥🍹—a delightful reward after the trek. Swimming caution: Be mindful of strong currents 🌊. Swim carefully and only if conditions are safe.

💡 Tips for the Trail:

Carry plenty of water 💧; the trail is demanding but enjoyable. Best times to visit: Early morning (7–9 AM) or late afternoon (4–6 PM) to avoid the heat and enjoy stunning light ☀️.

✨ Verdict: Anse Coco offers a perfect blend of adventure and tranquility. From scenic bike rides and invigorating hikes to a majestic beach destination, it’s an experience you’ll cherish forever 🌴🌟. A must-visit for anyone...

Absolutely mind-blowing beach. One of my favourites in La Digue. Not very easy to reach, be prepared to sweat a lot. Bring water and put your shoes on. You can bike to Grande Anse, then you will take the trail to Petite Anse (10/15 minutes in the jungle) and then it’s another 15/20 minutes to reach Anse Cocos. It’s worth it. There’s also a bar that serves fresh fruit, grilled fish, coconuts. I’d recommend to leave the beach around 16.30/17 so you still have enough light on...

Best beach on La Digue in our opinion. However, if it is rainy season then you are likely to have to walk through two swamps to get there so be ready and don’t wear nice shoes… I ended up taking off my trainers and doing the hike between Anse Petite and Coco barefoot. I survived, but a couple of uncomfortable parts with sharp little balls that feels like your stepping on Legos. But besides that, super incredible once you get there and the snorkelling in the rock...
