Flic-en-Flac Beach
Flic-en-Flac
One of the longest public beaches on the west coast, with white sand shaded by casuarina trees, a calm lagoon, and spectacular sunsets.
Located on the west coast, the beach stretches about 8 kilometers along a calm lagoon. It is good for swimming and snorkeling, and the surrounding area has many resorts, guesthouses, restaurants, and supermarkets, making it a popular area for independent travelers to stay. On weekends, local families barbecue and picnic under the casuarina trees, and roadside snack stalls sell Dholl Puri and grilled corn. It is also one of the departure points for boat trips to see dolphins and for diving. The beach is free. There are sea urchins in the lagoon, so wear reef shoes. It is about 10 minutes' drive from Casela Nature Park and about 40 minutes from Le Morne Mountain.
