Beach
Anse Source d'Argent
Sculpted granite boulders frame white-sand coves and shallow turquoise water on La Digue's south-west coast.
Enter through L'Union Estate and follow the shore beyond the first busy cove. Afternoon light brings out the grooves in the granite, while early visits are quieter. Check the tide: low water limits swimming, and high water can cover the paths between boulders. Use a dry bag if wading, and carry cash for beach stalls.
