Source D’Argent clinches top spot

The picture-postcard beach of Source D'Argent on La Digue has been ranked number one on the list of the World's Best fifty beaches published by The Guardian newspaper of the UK.

That same beach has also been categorised as the ‘BEST FOR WOW FACTOR’. 

The description of the beach on La Digue as spelled out by The Guardian says: “As if a beach like this needed any enhancement, pink-hued sand ups the ante in the picture-postcard stakes at Source d’Argent, a secluded cove on La Digue, the Seychelles’ third-largest island (in an archipelago of 115). Huge, weathered granite boulders bookend the shore, and there are nearby restaurants for sampling Creole-inspired cuisine”.

Seychelles is known for its white sandy beaches that are clean and for its year- round turquoise blue seas that lap its pristine beaches.

Seychelles’ Minister for Tourism and Culture Alain St Ange said he was thrilled on hearing the news that Source D'Argent on La Digue has been named the best beach of the world.

“We know we are the best for a sun, sea and sand holiday because we have a number of the best beaches and clear turquoise blue seas over and above a weather pattern that has given us the name of the islands of perpetual summer. This latest recognition is because our islands have managed the natural assets it has been blessed with. The Seychellois people are today seen as good custodians of its natural beauty,” said Minister St Ange.
