-La digue:
- It has the age-old reputation of being "the pearl of Seychelles",
and this is still valid today. It offers everything - beaches of
fine white sand, waves, lagoons, different shades of blue, granite
rocks, creeks, trekking on the mountains, a peak with a 360°
panoramic view. La Digue has been preserved from mass tourist development,
and still retains its cultural heritage. It is sparsely populated
and you will find little urban development.
- La Digue is essentially a human-sized island: the main means of
transport is the bicycle, as the island measures 4,5 km by 3,5 km.
There are about 35 vehicles on the whole, among which are a few
taxis and mini-buses. The most typical form of transport remains
the well-known ox-cart, and its leisurely speed allows its passenger
to make the most of the surrounding scenery.
