Baie Sainte Anne

Baie Sainte Anne occupies the south-eastern coast of Praslin, where a curved shoreline lies between the Au Morne and Fond Ferdinand headlands. The district contains a hospital, school, community facilities and a port, combining everyday services with maritime access to the island.

Passenger and cargo infrastructure have been reorganised along this waterfront. The ERO passenger terminal, inaugurated in 2023, separates ferry movements from freight handling, while cargo facilities occupy Eve Island. The older jetty was subsequently transferred to the Coast Guard. These distinct facilities replace the earlier arrangement in which passengers and goods shared a congested landing point, giving the coastal settlement separate spaces for commuting, supply and maritime operations.
