Anse Major gets toilet facilities and shelters |29 May 2017

One of Seychelles’ most famous beaches Anse Major is now equipped with toilet facilities and two shelters which will benefit visitors and locals alike coming there for a pleasant picnic.

The facilities is a generous donation from Apex Hotel Supplies (AHS) as part of its corporate social responsibilities (CSR) for the benefit the community and tourists.

The donation was made possible by the owner of AHS, Peter Clarke, in collaboration with the Seychelles National Parks Authority (SNPA). It was last year that SNPA in collaboration with private partners officially launched its development project for Anse Major.

It was a representative from AHS Neville Menigke who handed over the facilities and the key to the toilets to the chairman of SNPA Selby Remie.

The chief executive of SNPA Flavien Joubert stated that SNPA is trying really hard to improve all the beaches that are well visited by the public, along with the hike areas.

“The facilities consist of two toilets and two shelters. We were approached by AHS trying to find new ideas to benefit the community, so we decided to attend to such demand by having a toilet and shelter at Anse Major. The toilet facilities will be locked and there will be someone present that will take care of such facility. There are more concerns that we want to tackle soon,” he said.

AHS representative Neville Mennigke added that such project will benefit the community along with the tourists.

“People come to Anse Major all the time, it is a very important beach for both the Seychellois people and the tourists. It the past there were no shelter or toilet facilities, today the beach is equipped with such facilities. Also AHS along with Takamaka Bay Distillery and Archipelago Wines are proud to have helped the community of Seychelles,” he said.
