| La Digue, lying 45 kilometres from Mahé and 7 kilometres from Praslin is the fourth largest island in Seychelles, celebrated for its granite boulders that seem to have been sculpted by a divine hand to adorn beaches of breathtaking beauty such as Anse Source D'Argent. The island, where more traditional modes of transport such as bicycles and ox-carts still hold sway, offers authentic island-style accommodation, mainly situated on the west-coast while the east remains more or less untouched. The island serves as an ideal stepping-stone to the nearby islands of Grande Soeur and Petite Soeur, Félicité, Coco and Marianne. |

CLIMATE |
| |
Seychelles is constantly hot and humid, with an average annual temperature of 84°F (29°C), and the average sea temperature is the same, seldom dropping below 81°F (27°C). The heat is usually tempered by sea breezes. The islands lie outside of the hurricane belt, so storms are rare, but tropical rains fall during January and February. It is easy to escape the showers, though, because it can be sunny on one side of an island while it rains on the other.

SIGHTSEEING AND HIGHLIGHTS |
- The natural landscapes make the island unique from all other tropical destinations in the world. The one-of-a-kind rock formation extends down under the waters of La Digue. There are also several coves which have been featured in many international movies and renowned travel magazines. The beaches are also secluded where you can freely play your feet at the fine white sands without anyone watching.
