Cascade de Soulou
A rare waterfall on the west coast that drops directly onto the beach. At high tide the water almost falls straight into the sea, and it's a good spot to watch the sunset in the evening.
The Soulou Waterfall lies near Mwanyimba on the west coast of Grande-Terre, where a small river drops about 10 meters down a rock face directly onto the beach. At high tide the water almost falls straight into the sea, creating a unique sight. The beach below the falls is a good place to watch the sunset in the evening. During the dry season (May–October) the flow is small, and sometimes the falls dry up completely. The rainy season is more spectacular, but the roads are in poor condition. It is about a 10-minute walk along a path from the parking area, and it can be combined with the Tsingoni Mosque.
