Belle Mare
Mauritius · East Coast · 4 m
Description
The east coast of Mauritius is one of the island’s most scenic holiday regions, combining long white-sand beaches, turquoise lagoons, and exclusive resorts. Belle Mare is particularly renowned for its expansive beach, protected by the offshore coral reef and surrounded by calm, shallow waters. Just off Trou d’Eau Douce lies Île aux Cerfs, a wooded island known for its beaches, restaurants, golf course, and water sports. Trou d’Eau Douce also serves as a starting point for excursions to the waterfalls of Grand River South East. North of Belle Mare, Bras d’Eau National Park offers forests and wetlands, providing a natural contrast to the resort-lined coast.
