Beach
Pictures - Mauritius, Flic en Flac
next

Flic
en Flac beach in winter [June].
Many
of Mauritius' best beaches, whilst not exactly reserved by five star
hotels - which would be illegal as all beaches in the country are
public - are not easy to get onto as you have to approach along an
adjacent beach or via a boat and would find no public facilities available
when you got there.
Flic
en Flac, however, offers an easily reached, long public stretch of
powder white sand and calm, shallow, reef-protected water, backed
by the ubiquitous casuarina trees [which whilst offering shade, do
drop pointy seed pods that can be a pain]. The surrounding area may
have become overdeveloped for some tastes but does, at least, offer
the humble independent traveller a variety of guest houses, small
hotels, shops, bars and restaurants at budget prices.
Flic en Flac beach is also arguably drier than the country's other
best beach, the more northerly Trou aux Biches, and certainly drier
than the best east coast beach, Belle Mare.
