Cap Lazare Nature Reserve & Restaurant is set across a 60-hectare property in the natural surroundings of Baie Lazare on southern Mahé. The venue combines a restaurant, beach bar and nature reserve, creating a setting for dining, outdoor exploration and organised cultural or wellness experiences in Seychelles.

The main restaurant is housed beneath a broad thatched roof and has sandy flooring, giving the dining area an informal island character. Its culinary experiences are connected to Creole culture and the relationship between local food traditions and the tropical environment. A hydroponic farm supplies fresh produce for the kitchen, supporting a farm-to-table approach.

A separate beach bar and gazebo provide another place for refreshments within the reserve. The property also includes a thatched stage for presentations and events, along with a helipad and welcome lounge. These facilities support private occasions, group programmes and special events as well as regular dining experiences.

Outdoor activities are central to the setting. Nature trails lead through the reserve to viewpoints including Simone’s Lookout and a sunset platform on the eastern side of the property. Guided tours can be arranged by club car or on foot, offering ways to experience the landscape without limiting a visit to the restaurant. A park with free-roaming giant Seychelles land tortoises adds a distinctive wildlife element.

Experience options include cooking classes, guided nature tours, private or group yoga, and sunset gatherings with canapés and champagne. The exact format depends on the selected experience, with durations arranged flexibly. The reserve operates from Monday to Friday and offers experiences throughout the year.

Cap Lazare suits visitors looking to combine Creole-inspired dining with scenery, light walking and organised activities. Comfortable footwear is useful for the trails and lookout points, while mosquito repellent, sunglasses and casual clothing are practical choices for time spent outdoors. A camera can also be useful for the landscape and tortoise park.
