La Digue is the smallest of the three main islands and the most famously laid-back, a place where bicycles and ox-carts still outnumber cars. It is home to Anse Source d'Argent, one of the most photographed beaches on earth. The property market is small and tightly held, weighted toward guesthouses and character homes.

Where to buy on La Digue
La Passe
The one real village, where the ferry lands and island life is concentrated. Almost everything on La Digue sits within reach of it.
The coast and interior
Beyond the village, homes are scattered and rare. Supply is limited, so anything that comes up tends to move on reputation and word of mouth.
Who buys on La Digue
La Digue is for buyers who want somewhere genuinely quiet and singular, and who value character and location over a large choice of stock.
Foreign buyers, note. The national rules are the same on every island. A non-Seychellois needs a government sanction and must meet the price thresholds, currently a market value of at least SCR 10 million for a house with its land. Our guide for foreign buyers walks through the whole process.
