Anse Marie Louise is the last beach along the tarred coastal road of
southeast Mahe. It shares a quiet bay with Anse Forbans. Green Vouloutye
bushes and coconut palms hide the beach from the roadside.
Anse Marie Louise is protected by a reef approximately 100 metres offshore.
Small coral stones are scattered across the beach due to the nearby reef.
Swimming is only possible during high tide and beach sandals are recommended.
Venturing outside the reef line should be avoided. Swimming can be especially
dangerous during the southeast monsoon from May to October because of strong
currents. This beach along with Anse Forbans is a lively meeting point for
local picnickers on Sunday afternoons.
