THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACHES OF MAURITIUS

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACHES OF MAURITIUS

We go for its postcard beaches. Yes, but which ones? The choice is hard in paradise. Here are our five favorite beaches.

1 "Le Morne "
As she wears her name badly, for us French! "Morne: imbued with a gloomy sadness, Which, by its monotony, inspires sadness; dark and gloomy; dull, without brilliance ", says, in substance, the Larousse. Yes, but a dreary one in Mauritius and the West Indies is something else: a rounded height, soft and beautiful as a breast. Here, it is the Morne Brabant which watches over the beach, an admirable mount, intense green, inscribed in the Patrimony of the UNESCO Humanity and which here is symbol of freedom. At its feet, this sublime beach, white sand, turquoise water, and a miraculously limited attendance.

2 "Trou aux Biches" in french

3 kilometers of pristine sand, with the coconut trees behind and a declination of blue in front. The one from heaven, all those from the water. The archetype of paradise. If you want to fill up on the beach, spend all your time here, put your suitcases here, in one of the beautiful hotels that run along, and has its private beach. Beautifully appointed, with huts, luxury, calm and pleasure. Tanning, swimming, snorkeling, diving (wrecks, corals, parrot fish, marlin, sometimes sharks and dolphins), life is beautiful, barefoot, between sand and water.

3 "Beautiful mare"

The sand is immaculate, the water is extremely transparent, some filaos bring a touch of green and shade filaments, and if you want a little more, straw huts protect you from the overabundance of sunlight. parts of the beach that are arranged. Here the place is also frequented by Mauritians (they know where are the most beautiful beaches of their island) and it mingle with them with pleasure on weekends and holidays. And, during the week, we will gorge ourselves with calm. Mmmmmm!

4 "Gray Gray Beach"

Let's end with an atypical beach, like a tropical Brittany. Gris Gris is not a beach for swimming, we come for the show: the coral reef is absent here, and the waves, huge, come crashing at once on the coast. It's great. The sandy beach is set in the heart of black volcanic cliffs, and at the eastern end of the beach, the rich crying is said: the rocks advance towards the sea, water rushes into the rocks and small streams, as if it shed tears ... Tears of emotion, no sadness, certainly, in a place like this!

5 " Beach of Peyrebere "

More authentic still, the beach of Peyrebeyre. It is a real village, in its gargotes, travelers and local share the tables. We will lodge, according to his envoes, in a charming guest house, or in an elegant hotel, on a human scale. The beach is small, but sublime. Can jewels be giant? White sand, a blue lagoon, some rocky islands to animate the flat line of the horizon, you can bask, dabble, go fishing, slide on the water in kite surfing or water skiing. Swimming with a mask and a snorkel to follow the multicolored fish, or dive further out to admire the fauna of the depths of Mauritius.
