Worth a visit and of course being a Seychelles beach it's gorgeous, however it is busy and often rated one of the best, and we found Anse Georgette much nicer, along with Anse Coco on La Digue

I have been already to different beaches but this has been the best beach I've been to so far!!! Very pristine beach. Clear, turquoise water and soft powdery pinkish sands.. The water is so calm not much big waves. Worth the trip to the Seychelles

Was in Seychelles for honeymoon. Praslin --- and especially Anse Lazio is breathtaking. Lazio is perfect. The water, the scenery, the private seclusion. This is paradise. Hang out there all day long playing in the reef-protected cove, or hanging around on the beach amidst one of the large black boulders. Stunning. Must go!

Best beach on the island for swimming, relaxing and snorkeling. Easy to reach if you have a car. If you're taking the bus, you will have to walk uphill then downhill for about 1km. There are very good snorkeling spots on the left side of the beach. Nice place to swim but it gets deep quickly. 2 overpriced restaurants there... More

If it's windy there will be very high waves, so be careful! It takes a lot of time to get there from other side of island. There is only a few restaurants nearby with rather high prices.

We were told by a lot of people that we can go watch sunset on this beach. It was quiet a drive to get here and sun was setting further west and there was no sunset view. However, the beach itself was quiet beautiful and we sat down and sipped some wine. Quiet relaxing.

The water is beautiful - clear, clean and warm. We kept going back! Beautiful vegetation to keep you cool when you are not swimming. Fantastic snorkelling as well.

Another overrated beach. You'll find a lot of tourists here, and both restaurants are expensive. There were a lot of jellyfish lying around on the beach and my boyfriend got burned by one, so pay attention.

It is a must to visit Anse Lazio. We rented a car so it was easily reachable. I'd recommend to bring a cooler box with drinks.

The most beautiful place I have ever been. The water is so clear and clean you can see the fish swimming near your habits and crabs fleeing their disease faster
