About
Anse Source d'Argent is a beach in the Seychelles, an archipelago in the Indian Ocean that sits within the wider region of Oceania. It is a destination built around its setting: a stretch of pristine white sand, shallow and clear water, and a shoreline dominated by unusual granite boulders.
What to expect
The granite formations are the beach's defining feature. Rounded and weathered, they rise from the sand and water and give the bay a sculptural quality that visitors tend to remember. The sand is pale and fine, and the water is shallow and clear, which makes the beach a relaxed place to wade, walk and look around.

- A setting suited to a slow, unhurried beach day
Planning a visit
Anse Source d'Argent suits travellers who want a beach visit centred on the landscape itself: time on the sand, a walk along the rocks, and a swim in calm, shallow water. Because the rock formations are the main attraction, many visitors plan a morning or late afternoon walk to see them with softer light. Bring sun protection, as the beach offers little shade beyond the rocks.
