4 Beaches & a Cafe

We went to explore some of the more remote beaches down south today. It was a boiling hot. We set off at the crack of half past nine!

1. Anse Mary Louise
The first beach we found was called Anse Marie Louise (now re-christened Anse Mary Louise!) We chilled out in the shade of a coconut palm.
There was some great snorkelling at Anse Mary Lousie. That's Karen checking it out.
Bullethead Parrotfish, one of the many fish we saw.Me and Lisa recovering after our picnic lunch.
2. Anse Intendance
Next we drove down to Petit Police at the most southerly tip of Mahe. It was too rocky for swimming so we headed back north and found a great beach called Anse Intendance. The little bungalows on the hill are part of the Banyon Tree Hotel, one of the 2000 quid a night places down this end of the island. That's me cooling off in the amazingly blue water.
3. Baie Lazare
Anse Intendance was a bit rough for Karen so we headed round to Baie Lazare. There is an off-shore reef here which keeps the sea very calm. Here's Karen tanning her toes. While Karen was swimming Lisa scoffed the last of the chocolate muffins.
4. Anse a la Mouche
The last beach was Lisa's choice. Anse a la Mouche is very calm and also shallow. Here's the guys looking for the perfect spot...
We were worn out and well sunned after our beach adventures, so we stopped at the Athena Cafe in Anse a la Mouche for our sunday dinner.
