If you’re in the Seychelles, give yourselves a treat and do the walk to this stunning little beach. If you want a longer walk, you can park your car at La Scala restaurant at the end of the Bel Ombre road, or you can be lazy (like we were) and drive as far as you can along the road. There is a sign saying ‘No cars beyond this point’ at an abandoned house. Here is Big Foot near the start. There are amazing rock formations everywhere.
Here are the Brittains and D sweating their way along the path. You will sweat a lot, but it will be worth it....you'll see.
Here’s Marie resting in the walk through cave.
Marie's nearly there. There’s the small cove of Anse Major, way down there on the left, beyond the small shelter and picnic table.

And there it is in all its glory.
You've reached the beach. If you drove as far as the old house, it will probably have taken you about an hour and a quarter to get there, at a very leisurely pace. Now you can have a swim in the sea, or in the fresh water pool if the sea’s too rough. It often is. Don’t take chances. There are no lifesavers around.
Marie and Jane have stopped to drink in the silence and the view. You can do this anywhere along the route. If you’re lucky you may see blue pigeons, the graceful long-tailed tropic birds or fairy terns, swooping in pairs. You might even see rays way down there in the sea, or a school of dolphins swimming lazily along in the distance.
Heading back toward Bel Ombre, you get a totally different perspective. DO IT!
