As the main reason why most travellers visit the country, the spectacular beaches in Seychelles are the envy of the world. Home to beaches that have been ranked among the top beaches in the world in travel magazines time and time again, the white powdery sands and turquoise waters are picture-postcard perfect, to say the least. Some of the top beaches in the Seychelles include Anse Source D'Argent located on La Digue Island while Praslin Island's Anse Lazio is equally popular. Mahe's Beau Vallon beach is known for its stunning sunsets while Grand Anse and Anse Royale are just as breathtaking. The most attractive aspect of Seychelles's beaches is that they are not overrun with tourist hotels and tourists and are in fact tranquil pieces of paradise unto themselves.
